Presentation
Since its launch in 2009, the World Demolition Summit (WDS) has become a well-established international meeting point for professionals across the demolition and recycling sectors. Each edition brings together contractors, engineers, manufacturers, consultants and clients to exchange knowledge, discuss industry developments and share experience from projects around the world.
This year, the event will take place from 3 to 5 November 2026 in Madrid, Spain.
Now in its 18th edition, the programme will feature technical presentations on complex demolition and recycling projects, discussions on emerging technologies, equipment and working practices, as well as sessions focused on innovation, safety and sustainability.
The event provides an opportunity to gain practical insights, keep up to date with current industry trends and connect with professionals from across the global demolition community. The Summit will conclude with the World Demolition Awards, recognising outstanding projects and achievements from around the world.
As a collaborating association, the European Demolition Association (EDA) is pleased to offer its members an exclusive 20% discount on the registration fee.
