The Bahrain International Airshow (BIAS) was established in 2010 to create a truly distinctive event. BIAS offers the industry a platform for high-level corporate hospitality, unique access to military and civil delegations, and showcasing technological innovations to potential buyers around the world.

The success of the inaugural edition, which took place 21-23 January 2010, established IAS as one of the most influential and prestigious hospitality events in the region, with the show returning every two years to provide a world-class networking and business opportunity.
