Advanced Materials Show USA 2026 took place October 6–7, 2026.

It was held in Hall A at David L. Lawrence Convention Center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA.

The organizer listed materials scientists, R&D engineers, QA/QC teams, lab managers, process engineers, OEMs and technical buyers.

It was most useful for materials scientists, lab managers, QA/QC and process engineers who needed to compare characterization and testing equipment, since exhibitors such as NETZSCH, Innovatest and JMatPro sat alongside the co-located MS&T26 technical meeting in Pittsburgh. Researchers wanting primarily paper sessions would get more from MS&T itself, and buyers outside materials testing and processing would find little relevant, as the exhibit was built around instruments, processing systems and materials.

Materials science and engineering events typically see business casual, with polos or button-down shirts, and comfortable shoes are important for a long day on a convention center floor.
