The Big 5 Construct Ethiopia is an internationally renowned trade fair for the construction industry, held annually at the Millennium Hall in Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia.

The event is organized by dmg::events, a global expert in trade shows and conferences with extensive experience in delivering high-quality events across industries such as construction, energy, coatings, and hospitality.

The Big 5 Construct Ethiopia is distinguished by its thematic depth and diversity, with a particular focus on construction materials, including concrete, cement, steel, glass, ceramics, and advanced insulation solutions. Sustainable and environmentally friendly building practices are a central theme. Construction equipment and machinery are also prominently featured, ranging from heavy-duty machines to specialized lifting, conveying, and transport technologies.
