SIFER 2027 in Lille: rail trade show and nearby hotels

SIFER is France's flagship biennial gathering for the railway industry. From 22 to 24 June 2027, Lille Grand Palais will host manufacturers, operators, infrastructure managers and technology suppliers showcasing the solutions reshaping rail transport. Across three days, the show pairs a large exhibition floor with conferences, workshops, technical seminars and B2B meetings. Visitors can explore advances in track infrastructure, signalling and train control, passenger and freight rolling stock, safety systems, and dedicated zones such as the Tunnelling Area and the Innovation Hub. Lille, in the Hauts-de-France region, is one of Europe's key rail hubs, making SIFER the natural meeting point to do business, catch up on market trends and connect with decision-makers. Staying near the venue helps you make the most of all three days without long commutes.
