September 2026 is shaping up to be one of the busiest periods at SECC, with exhibitions running almost back to back across furniture, sourcing, plastics and rubber, printing and packaging, healthcare, elderly care, and construction. This guide brings together the key September 2026 events at SECC, their dates, industries, and the information worth knowing before you attend.
September 2026 SECC event schedule at a glance
September brings 8 major exhibitions and trade fairs to SECC, beginning with VIFA ASEAN on 2 September and ending with VIBE 2026, which starts on 30 September and continues into early October. The month covers a wide mix of industries, from furniture and sourcing to plastics, printing, healthcare and construction.
VIFA ASEAN and the Sourcing Expo open the month almost in parallel
September begins with two events running on overlapping dates. VIFA ASEAN 2026, the ASEAN Vietnam International Furniture & Home Décor Fair, runs from 2 to 5 September and focuses on furniture, home décor and handicraft products for regional and international markets. The Viet Nam International Sourcing Expo 2026 follows from 3 to 5 September, bringing together businesses across export supply chains, including food and beverage, fashion, textiles and consumer goods.

From 9 to 12 September, SECC hosts VietnamPlas 2026, a major specialized trade show for the plastics and rubber industry. It is followed from 16 to 19 September by VietnamPrintPack 2026, which brings together printing machinery, packaging materials and packaging solutions. Together, the two events make mid-September a particularly active period for industrial manufacturers and B2B visitors.

Late September brings the month's most concentrated cluster of related events. Pharmedi Vietnam 2026, Ravex 2026 and Elderly Care 2026 all run from 22 to 24 September, covering pharmaceuticals, medical equipment, rehabilitation technology, assistive devices and elderly-care products. For hospitals, medical facilities and businesses serving older adults, the overlapping schedule makes it possible to explore all three exhibitions in a single trip to SECC.
With three related exhibitions sharing the same dates, 22–24 September is the clearest opportunity in the month for healthcare professionals and businesses to combine multiple sector-specific visits in one schedule.
VIBE 2026 closes September and carries the calendar into October
VIBE 2026 starts on 30 September and continues through 3 October. The event focuses on furniture, building materials, architectural design and smart interior solutions, making it particularly relevant to businesses in construction, architecture and interior design.
Because VIBE begins on the final day of September and continues into October, visitors should plan around the full 30 September–3 October period rather than treating it as a one-day September event.
Which September SECC event fits your industry?
For furniture and handicraft businesses, VIFA ASEAN and VIBE are the most relevant events, even though they sit at opposite ends of the month. For import-export and consumer-goods supply chains, the Viet Nam International Sourcing Expo is the main draw. Industrial manufacturers, particularly in plastics and rubber, should prioritize VietnamPlas, while printing and packaging businesses will find VietnamPrintPack more relevant. Healthcare, pharmaceutical and elderly-care professionals should focus on the 22–24 September cluster.
