The Great Connection at wire China 2026 is officially sold out ahead of tomorrow evening’s event at CHAR Bar, Hotel Indigo Shanghai on the Bund.

Following a hugely successful Great Connection at wire Düsseldorf 2026, IWMA is bringing its signature networking event to Shanghai on Wednesday 23 September, giving members, colleagues and industry friends the opportunity to connect in a relaxed setting away from the show floor.

With record-breaking attendance, great conversations, live entertainment and an incredible atmosphere, The Great Connection at wire Düsseldorf 2026 was a brilliant celebration of the global wire and cable community. Watch the highlights from Düsseldorf on our YouTube channel here.

Tomorrow’s event will feature an evening of networking, light bites and drinks, with views across the Huangpu River and Pudong skyline. Guests can also enjoy IWMA’s signature Aperol Spritz and a short opening address from IWMA Chairman, Willibert Dautzenberg.

The event will take place at CHAR Bar, Hotel Indigo Shanghai on the Bund, with a shuttle departing from the IWMA stand at 5:30pm when the show floor closes.

We look forward to welcoming everyone tomorrow for another great evening of networking at The Great Connection.
