MLA Expo 2025Â run by the Master Locksmiths Association will take place next from 17th to 19th October 2025. Europe’s largest locksmith exhibition is seen as the security event of the year for the locksmith & security industry, a trade show that can’t be missed.
MLA Expo sees the return of our Auto locksmith exhibition area ‘THE GARAGE’ featuring companies showcasing the latest products + developments in the auto industry.
With training courses & seminars to take place over the weekend, there will be over 80 classes being run with a number being being free of charge.
As well as the auto-specific training courses there will be various demonstrations and seminars being run by exhibitors in the Garage Seminar Area in Hall 1.
With 22 exhibitions already under our belt, MLA Expo is the Premier Locksmith & Security Exhibition in Europe. The event features exhibitors and attendees from all across the world.
MLA Expo started for many years being run in hotels, but it has grown significantly & is now the largest Locksmith and Security event of its kind in Europe, requiring a purpose-built exhibition venue of 6000+ square meters to house the significant number of exhibitors and visitors who attend the event.
A great chance to network with fellow locksmiths and security professionals from around the world.
MLA Expo is the perfect chance to speak to industry experts from manufacturers, installers, suppliers & wholesalers.
Simple, great info on new products, a chance to get your hands on the latest locksmith tools and security products, great show deals and the usual Excellent Locksmith Training, all at the premier locksmiths exhibition.
Visitor Entry is FREE to the Exhibition. You can quickly register interest for 2025 here.

This will be the first time we have exhibited at an MLA Expo but with it being the premier Locksmith & Security exhibition in Europe, it made sense to showcase our range of perimeter protection products there. With exhibitors and attendees from across the globe, we are looking forward to meeting new connections and bringing our security solutions to a very relevant market.
Director of Operations – Defendastrip
MLA Expo really was our chance to set the standard when it comes to mechanical product innovation. Visitors could see the focus on patented technology and how Mul-T-Lock is exceeding expectations with solutions to ongoing threats such as key bumping and lock snapping.  Our intention is always to support our locksmith’s bid to show how just upgrading a locking cylinder can make a significant difference.
