DRONE SECURITY EXPO Kraków

The DRONE SECURITY EXPO (DSE) is the first international trade fair in Poland dedicated exclusively to drone technologies and counter-drone systems. It takes place at the International Exhibition and Convention Centre EXPO Kraków and is organized by Targi w Krakowie Sp. z o.o., the largest trade fair organizer in southern Poland.

With its clear focus on security-related aspects of civilian and governmental drone use, the event provides a unique platform for a rapidly evolving field. As the deployment of unmanned aerial systems continues to grow, the importance of this sector is increasing significantly. The DSE specifically addresses the needs and challenges faced by public authorities, industry, and service providers in managing drones and responding to potential threats.

A key strength of the event lies in its hands-on approach: Live demonstrations, including BVLOS flights (Beyond Visual Line of Sight), counter-drone system tests, and technical showcases in realistic test environments, offer visitors direct insights into cutting-edge technologies. The exhibition is further enriched by a high-level expert forum featuring conferences, workshops, and panel discussions. Decision-makers from government, military, police, energy, and industry sectors engage in dialogue about current developments and practical solutions.

The range of products and services on display is both broad and highly specialized: from the latest drone models, software solutions, components, and accessories to training programs, consulting services, and tailored security systems for drone defense. Start-ups, technology clusters, chambers of commerce, and government agencies also showcase their innovations, making the DSE a vibrant marketplace for collaboration and exchange.

Exhibitors represent a wide spectrum of sectors: manufacturers, suppliers, software developers, security and defense providers, police forces, military units, start-ups, and research institutions. This diversity is mirrored in the professional audience the DSE attracts – decision-makers and technical experts from the fields of security, defense, energy, transportation, aviation, industry, and public administration.

Kraków is not only one of Poland’s oldest and most culturally significant cities, but is also rapidly evolving into a hub for technology, innovation, and international cooperation. The EXPO Kraków venue, with its modern infrastructure and convenient location – just minutes from Kraków-Balice Airport and the city center – offers ideal conditions for an international trade fair of this scale.

The DRONE SECURITY EXPO uniquely combines technological innovation, practical application, and security expertise. It is an essential meeting point for all stakeholders involved in the future of unmanned aviation and the regulatory and safety challenges it brings – in the heart of Europe, in the dynamic city of Kraków.

The DRONE SECURITY EXPO will take place on 2 days from Wednesday, 07. October to Thursday, 08. October 2026 in Kraków.
