ENTECH NZ brings together audio visual and presentation technologies for venues, events, public spaces, concerts and theatre with equipment from most major distributors representing almost all major brands on show. 

The simple one-day format attracts professional buyers representing more than 80% of the national market in New Zealand.

Organisers Kate McKenzie and Julius Grafton will share news on significant innovations for the 2026 NZ tour at the launch with Grafton commenting, "ENTECH NZ 2026 promises to be our biggest and best NZ roadshow yet. We have several new technology and show announcements and more exhibitors interested than ever before."

ENTECH will visit Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth in May 2026, Auckland and Wellington in July 2026 and Christchurch in August 2026. ENTECH Roadshow is space limited for national exhibitors - typically distributors - with freight carried in dedicated trucks. Limited spaces are held for video distributors and resellers who book early. 

Grafton concluded, "The launch is open to anyone considering exhibiting on the ENTECH NZ Roadshow in 2026 and due to the announcements we will be making, is not to be missed."

The ENTECH NZ drinks and canapés launch event starts at 3pm on Wednesday 16 July 2025 at Saint Alice Bar, 1/204 Quay Street, Auckland Central, Auckland 1010.

About ENTECH

ENTECH Roadshow is the only trade show for AV and entertainment technology professionals that visits every major population centre in Australia, opening up access to more business opportunities than any other event. ENTECH will visit Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, and Perth in May 2026, bringing a fresh perspective on the industry as a whole to every local market. 

As confirmed by the ISE exhibition in Barcelona, our industry has now entered a phase we're calling 'post-converged'. The worlds of unified communications, IT, AV, lighting, video, audio, signage, staging, and control have gone past the transition period of becoming networked and controlled by software and entered a new phase where new business models, products, and markets are emerging.  Manufacturers that were once focussed on one aspect of live performance or recording are now creating products for corporate meeting rooms. Companies that were creating platforms for digital signage are now offering room control and corporate communications. Lighting companies that power huge stadium gigs are creating networked architectural products, as are their audio counterparts. And at the centre of all this, the customer, be they installer, production firm, or consultant, is now part IT manager and concerned with the integration of systems as a whole.
