Kathmandu – Preparations for the 18th NADA Auto Show 2026 have entered the final stage, with stall construction moving rapidly at Bhrikutimandap ahead of the exhibition’s opening on Tuesday.
Automobile brands, auto-parts and component suppliers, tyre and lubricant companies, battery and charging infrastructure providers, garage-equipment suppliers, banks and insurance companies are busy preparing their exhibition spaces. Electrical work, lighting, digital displays, branding and other technical arrangements are also being completed as only one day remains before the show begins.
According to NADA, this year’s Golden Jubilee edition will feature more than 200 stalls across approximately 300,000 square feet of exhibition space. A total of 53 vehicle brands are expected to participate, including 23 passenger vehicle brands, 17 light commercial vehicle brands and 13 two-wheeler brands.
Around 70 stalls will showcase auto parts, tyres, batteries, lubricants, accessories, garage equipment and other automotive products. Banks, financial institutions and insurance companies will also participate in the exhibition.
Marking NADA’s 50th anniversary, organizers say this year’s show is being prepared to be more attractive, organized and technology-focused than previous editions. The exhibition will highlight new vehicles, electric mobility and emerging automotive technologies.
A special “Made in Nepal and Made for Nepal” pavilion will also promote vehicles, EVs, batteries, helmets and automotive components manufactured or assembled in Nepal.
