Interlight | Smart City & Home Krasnogorsk

The Interlight | Smart City & Home is an annual trade fair held in Moscow and recognized as the leading platform for lighting technologies, building automation, and urban future concepts in Russia. Established in 1995 under the name Interlight Russia, it has developed into a key meeting point for industry professionals from across Eastern Europe and beyond. Today, the event takes place at the modern Crocus Expo International Exhibition Center, one of Russia’s largest and most technically advanced exhibition venues. Conveniently located in the northwest of Moscow, it offers excellent national and international accessibility.

The fair is organized by GEFERA Media LLC, an experienced trade show organizer that works closely with international partners and industry experts to create innovative formats and high-quality content. Attendance is limited to professionals, including architects, urban planners, engineers, system integrators, municipal representatives, and decision-makers from industry, commerce, and the housing sector.

What sets Interlight | Smart City & Home apart is its broad thematic scope, which goes well beyond the profile of a traditional lighting exhibition. It brings together three closely connected fields under one roof: intelligent lighting, smart building and smart home technologies, and urban innovations in the context of smart cities.

Intelligent lighting, the origin and still a central focus of the event, showcases professional solutions for architecture, industry, and public spaces. Key topics include energy efficiency, human-centric lighting, and the integration of IoT technologies. Light is presented not only as a design element but as an intelligent system that responds to environmental conditions and human needs.

The smart building and smart home segment expands the perspective to connectivity and automation in both private and public buildings. Highlights include building automation systems for heating, lighting, and shading control, intelligent energy management, and integrated security solutions. Special attention is given to platforms and hubs that unify diverse technologies and make the vision of a fully connected smart home a tangible reality.

Looking even further ahead, the smart city and urban technologies area focuses on the digitalization of entire cities. Exhibits feature intelligent street lighting with integrated sensors, charging infrastructure for electric mobility, and public Wi-Fi hotspots. Additional solutions address traffic management, waste management, environmental monitoring, energy distribution, and ICT infrastructure. The fair thus highlights the technological foundations of sustainable, connected cities – from 5G and fiber optics to data centers.

With its consistent focus on IoT, energy efficiency, and sustainability, Interlight | Smart City & Home offers a comprehensive overview of the entire value chain in lighting and building technology, as well as innovations shaping the urban life of the future. It is an essential platform for all those involved in creating smarter, more livable spaces – indoors and in the public realm alike.

By combining expertise with inspiration, the exhibition provides a specialized environment for knowledge exchange, business development, and innovation. Thanks to its clear focus, many years of experience, and continuous thematic evolution, it has established itself as a relevant and forward-looking event for professionals in lighting, technology, and urban transformation.

On the whole the organisers welcomed on the 4 days of the fair, from 18. September to 21. September 2023, about 498 exhibitors and 23617 visitors on the Interlight | Smart City & Home in Moscow.

The Interlight | Smart City & Home will take place on 4 days from Tuesday, 21. October to Friday, 24. October 2025 in Krasnogorsk.
