The Eikon Exhibition Centre is gearing up for one of the most anticipated industry launches of 2026, as we proudly welcome the Road Transport Expo (RTX) Northern Ireland on 15–16 April 2026. This brand-new event is set to unite the entire road haulage and commercial vehicle sector for an action-packed two-day showcase—and we couldn’t be more excited.
As Northern Ireland’s newest one-stop shop for everything trucking, RTX NI will bring innovation, expertise, and hands-on experiences together under one roof, making it a must-attend date for operators, drivers, fleet managers, suppliers, and anyone connected to the transport and logistics world.
🔧 Discover the Latest in Trucks, Trailers & Transport Technology

🚛 Get Behind the Wheel: The Ride & Drive Experience
One of the most exciting features of the expo is the Ride & Drive Experience.
