2026 Osaka Auto Messe

Annual Tokyo-area-style tuning and aftermarket show moving to INTEX Osaka for three days in February 2026. The show runs Feb 13–15 with daily hours 9:00 AM–6:00 PM and a Silent Time on the morning of Feb 13.

Expect factory and independent tuners, dress-up displays, audio and hobby product exhibitors, and on-site merchandisers across the exhibition halls.

A concentrated showcase of Japanese car customization, performance parts, and audio/hobby accessories across INTEX OSAKA. The event is organized by the Automesse Association and runs Feb 13–15, 2026.

What makes it worth the trip:

• Large collection of tuned and dressed cars from manufacturers, aftermarket brands, and independent shops for up-close inspection.
• Dedicated sections for car audio, hobby items, and product sales so you can compare parts and buy on site.
• Official support from local industry bodies and clubs, providing a mix of mainstream and niche displays.

Best way to experience it:

Arrive early on weekend days to avoid mid-afternoon crowds and to see the Silent Time start on Feb 13 if interested. Use INTEX Osaka station connections (train+shuttle or local subway) and leave extra time for lines at popular booths. Bring cash and a credit card for purchases; measure cargo space if you plan to buy bulky items.

Good to know:

• Daily hours are 9:00 AM–6:00 PM; the first day includes a morning Silent Time (shorter hours that day apply).
• Exact ticketing details and special-program schedules are posted on the official Automesse website prior to the event.

• Great if you want to see a wide range of Japanese tuning and dress-up culture in one place.
• Great if you enjoy hands-on comparison shopping for audio and aftermarket parts.
• Great if you like inspecting show cars and talking directly with builders and vendors.
• Maybe skip if you prefer racing-only events or strictly OEM new-car showcases.
