The Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines (CAMPI) has confirmed that the 10th Philippine International Motor Show (PIMS) will take place on June 4–7, 2026, at the World Trade Center Metro Manila in Pasay City.
The upcoming edition marks a major schedule shift. Previous PIMS events were typically held in September or October every two years, but the 2026 show will move to June. While CAMPI did not provide an official explanation, the change follows weather-related disruptions, including heavy rain and flooding, during the 2024 edition.
Preparations are already underway, and the event is expected to be the most extensive PIMS to date. CAMPI president Atty. Rommel R. Gutierrez said the 10th edition will represent “a new chapter for the Philippine automotive sector,” with more member brands anticipated to participate.
He added that the event will highlight advanced technologies, global models, and emerging mobility solutions that signal the direction of the industry in the coming years.
Alongside the announcement, CAMPI celebrated another milestone with the official launch of its 30th Anniversary Coffee Table Book.
The commemorative publication documents three decades of developments in the Philippine automotive industry, covering regulatory milestones, technological progress, market expansion, and the contributions of CAMPI member brands.
CAMPI Chairman Jose Chavez Alvarez, President Atty. Rommel Gutierrez and members of the Board of Trustees, Executive Committee, and industry partners attended the launch.
Gutierrez said the book serves as a tribute to the industry’s collective achievements, reflecting on the challenges overcome and the partnerships that have shaped mobility for Filipinos.
With the dates now confirmed, anticipation is building for what manufacturers will unveil at the 2026 PIMS, marking a significant milestone for the biennial event.
