44th China International Sporting Goods Show (China Sport Show) 2027
第44届中国国际体育用品博览会
May 13 – 16, 2027 · Chengdu
China's national sporting-goods fair, covering fitness equipment, team and ball sports, outdoor and camping, sportswear and sports venues. The host city changes between editions — 2027 is in Chengdu. Suits fitness and outdoor sellers looking for OEM factories and new domestic brands.
Buyer tips
Fitness equipment is heavy and bulky — ask exhibitors which port they ship from and get landed-cost quotes, since inland Chengdu is not where most factories are.

Visiting Chengdu for this fair
Practical notes for buyers flying in: entry rules, how to reach the venue, where to stay, how to pay, and what to do with the days after the fair. Checked October 14, 2026.
- Entry and visas
- Chengdu Tianfu (TFU) and Shuangliu (CTU) airports are both 240-hour visa-free transit ports, with Sichuan as the permitted area. The 30-day unilateral exemption applies to qualifying passports. Direct flights from Europe, the Middle East and Southeast Asia make Chengdu an easy entry point for western China.
- Getting to the venue
- Western China International Expo City is in Tianfu New Area, south of the city: metro Line 1 to Western China International Expo City station, about 40 minutes by taxi from Shuangliu airport and 30 minutes from Tianfu airport.
- Where to stay
- Tianfu New Area or the Gaoxin south district near the venue; downtown Chengdu is 40 to 60 minutes away in traffic.
- Paying in Chengdu
- Alipay and WeChat Pay with a foreign card. Chengdu is a domestic-market city, so fewer suppliers quote in USD; agree the currency and Incoterm before you leave the booth.
- After the fair
- Chengdu's fairs mostly serve western China's domestic market. Export factories for consumer goods are on the coast, 2.5 to 3 hours away by air (Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen). Chengdu and Chongqing are the main departure points for China-Europe rail freight, useful if you ship to Russia, Central Asia or Europe by train.
