Melbourne will host the first-ever Agritechnica Australia in 2027, bringing the world's largest farm machinery exhibition brand to Australian soil for the first time.

Organisers have confirmed the Victorian capital as the venue for the debut edition, marking a significant extension of the Agritechnica name beyond its long-established home in Hanover, Germany.

Why does this matter for Australian growers?

Agritechnica is one of the biggest agricultural technology and machinery events on the global calendar. Its arrival in Australia means local farmers, contractors and dealers will get direct access to the launches and technical programs that have traditionally required a trip to Europe.

For machinery manufacturers, a Melbourne edition signals a stronger push into the Australian and Asia-Pacific markets, where broadacre cropping, high-capacity harvesting and precision agriculture adoption continue to drive equipment demand.

What happens next?

Details on exact dates, venue and exhibitor registrations for the 2027 event are expected to be released as planning progresses. Farmers and industry attendees should watch for announcements on ticketing and the exhibitor lineup in the lead-up to the show.
