Canton Fair Edition — Spring

April 20–30, 2027 · first the fair, then the delta · $2,985

Attend Phase 1 (electronics, April 15–19) on your badge — then go behind the booths. Eleven days through the delta that builds what the fair sells: XPeng’s factory program, BYD’s HQ and SkyRail, Huaqiangbei with a veteran fixer, EHang’s vertiport, Zhuhai’s space coast — ending April 30, deliberately ahead of the May Day wave. Optional fair add-ons: floor guide/translation days ($165 shared · $345 private), badge assist ($75), fair-week hotel block (rate +18%).

$2,985 land-only (1.5-week tier) · $500 deposit · L or M visa ($140; fair invitation letters help).

All site visits are subject to confirmation and availability. Named companies indicate planned and attempted visits, not guarantees.

Departure morning: If flight time permits, loop the Shenzhen Talent Park bay boardwalk near the hotel on Friday morning before your airport transfer.
