Africa’s aviation industry is heading to Nairobi, Kenya, for Aviation Africa 2026, one of the continent’s leading platforms for aviation policy, investment, infrastructure, and innovation.
Taking place September 9–10, 2026, at the Sarit Expo Centre, the 10th edition of Aviation Africa will bring together regulators, airlines, OEMs, infrastructure leaders, investors, and emerging technology players shaping the future of African skies.
And this year, drones and autonomous systems will be part of the center-stage conversation.
The African Drone Forum will join as a strategic partner, helping convene the Drone + Autonomous Systems Track and the African Drone Regulators Forum.
This creates a dedicated platform for the drone ecosystem to engage on the issues that matter most:
BVLOS operations and drone corridors
UTM and airspace integration
Drone data, AI, and autonomy
Advanced Air Mobility and infrastructure readiness
Training, certification, and workforce development
Market access, partnerships, and investment opportunities
For drone pilots, startups, OEMs, regulators, training academies, and ecosystem builders, this is a chance to sit where aviation decisions are being made and help shape how drones are integrated into Africa’s aviation future.
Your seat at the table is here.
