The 8th edition of SOFINS will be held from April 6 to 8, 2027 at the Parc des Expositions de Bordeaux-Lac. The event is leaving Camp de Souge for this new Bordeaux location. In 2025, it brought together 322 exhibitors, nearly 3,500 visitors, and 57 foreign special forces delegations.

SOFINS is not a showcase exhibition. Defense SMEs and major groups test their equipment there under real conditions, in front of COS operators. Dynamic demonstrations, SOFLAB, field feedback, dual innovation: the exhibitor must be able to show, explain, and then negotiate in the same place. The ability to isolate a sensitive discussion is therefore just as important as the presentation of the operator equipment.

EXPACE designs and builds custom stands tailored for this demanding environment. The immersive wall of the MC2 Technologies stand, the steel and matte black architecture of Texelis and the Hornet stand, with its illuminated showcases and discreet meeting rooms, demonstrate how to balance product demonstration and confidentiality. We also know how to unite several companies within a single space, as seen in the collective pavilion of the EDEN cluster. 3D design, construction, logistics, and assembly right up to Bordeaux: everything is managed by a single team.
