Metalurgia 2027 in Joinville: hotels for the metal show

Metalurgia returns for its 14th edition as Brazil's international trade fair and congress for foundry, steel, forging, aluminium and services technology. It runs from 21 to 24 September 2027 at the Expoville Pavilions in Joinville, Santa Catarina, opening daily from 13:00 to 20:00. The event is organised by Messe Brasil and takes place every two years. Southern Brazil accounts for half of the country's foundry output, and Santa Catarina alone contributes 37% of national volume. Host city Joinville is home to over 11,000 industrial companies, including more than 1,500 in the metalworking sector and some of Latin America's largest foundries. The trade fair runs alongside the CINTEC Congress, the technical foundry conference that shares the event's name, plus a Business Matchmaking Round (around 420 meetings in 2025) and exhibitor workshops held in the Margarida, Acácia and Violeta rooms. The 2025 edition drew 240 exhibitors, 80% of which launched new products or innovations, and nearly 25% came from 12 foreign countries. Attendees are technical and purchasing decision-makers from across the metal transformation chain. Metalurgia is the reference meeting point for the industry in Brazil.
