Choose from the following airports, with convenient access to the event and venue.
Indira Gandhi International
to venue
by car
A range of accommodation options near the venue and across key areas.
Hotel Viraj Residency
Approximate USD equivalent of the captured INR 1,207 quote for the 17-19 December 2026 search window; free breakfast, free Wi-Fi and airport shuttle listed. Confirm the final INR rate and taxes directly with the hotel.
Hotel Golden Oasis Delhi
Captured at around INR 1,521 for a December 2026 stay with free breakfast, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, parking, airport shuttle and laundry. Approximate USD band; reconfirm inclusions at booking.
The Grand Uddhav
Captured as an excellent-location option in the New Delhi hotel search, with free parking, airport shuttle and kitchen facilities in some rooms. Approximate USD band for a December show week; confirm shuttle timing to Dwarka Sector 25.
Hotel Viva Palace
Captured at around 31 percent below its usual rate in the December 2026 window, with free breakfast, free parking, restaurant, airport shuttle and business centre. Approximate USD band; midscale comfort for exhibitor teams.
Hotel Ambrosia Delhi Airport by VHV
Airport-belt option with free parking, business centre and a smoke-free property, convenient for DEL transfers toward Dwarka Sector 25. Approximate USD band for the December edition; airport hotels are usually the priciest tier during show weeks.
Get around the city with these convenient transport options.
metro / Airport Express Line
The Airport Express Line links the airport corridor with the Dwarka Sector 25 / Yashobhoomi station in roughly 20-25 minutes. Buy a QR ticket or use a metro card; keep luggage light during peak hours.
metro / Blue Line connection
Use the Blue Line for onward connections from central Delhi and change at Dwarka Sector 21 into the Dwarka Sector 25 corridor. Deliberately cheaper than road transport and unaffected by traffic.
app cab (Ola / Uber / BluSmart)
App cabs pick up from the designated airport zones and follow Dwarka Expressway or IGI Road. Surge pricing is common on show mornings and during evening peak; BluSmart offers an all-electric fleet option.
prepaid taxi
Book at the official prepaid taxi counter inside the terminal for a fixed fare, useful if you do not have an Indian payment app. Keep the coupon for the driver and confirm the drop point is the Yashobhoomi convention gate.
auto-rickshaw (short hop)
Useful for the last 2-5 km from Dwarka hotels or the metro interchange. Not practical for airport luggage runs; confirm the fare before boarding.
hotel shuttle
Several airport and Dwarka hotels list shuttle service in their inclusions. Confirm departure times against the LED Expo opening hours and book the return leg in advance.
parking at venue
On-site parking serves the convention complex; exhibitor and visitor zones differ during show days. Arrive early on day one because access roads around Dwarka Sector 25 are marshalled during large events.
taxi
Indira Gandhi International (DEL) is the main commercial gateway serving New Delhi; allow 45-60 min by road or rail to Hall 1, Yashobhoomi (India International Convention & Expo Centre).
Plan your trip
Check the latest visa requirements and entry guidelines before travelling.

Weather
December is New Delhi's cool, dry winter month. Afternoon highs typically sit around 18-23°C while nights drop to roughly 7-10°C, and rainfall is low. The main operational risk is dense morning fog, which can delay flights into DEL and slow traffic on Dwarka Expressway and IGI Road. Exhibition halls can feel cold early in the day and comfortably warm by afternoon, so layered clothing works better than a single heavy coat. Air quality in Delhi is usually poor in December, and visitors sensitive to particulates should carry a mask. Treat these as seasonal bands and check the forecast in the final week before travel.
Plan for the climate
Check temperatures and pack accordingly
Venue connectivity
Indian prepaid SIM cards from Airtel, Jio or Vi require your passport and a passport photo, and activation can take a few hours up to a day, so an eSIM bought before departure is the simplest option for a short show trip. 5G coverage is broad across New Delhi and Dwarka, and the Yashobhoomi complex is a modern venue where exhibitors typically order dedicated internet from the official stand-services contractor rather than relying on mobile hotspots. Hotel and venue Wi-Fi are usually free in public areas but can be congested during peak show hours. Power is 230 V at 50 Hz with type D and type G sockets, so bring a universal adapter and a surge-protected strip for laptops, LED demo boards and phone charging.

Car rentals
Useful information to help you have a smooth and respectful visit.
Greetings and business etiquette
A handshake is common in Indian business settings, and a light namaste with palms together is a respectful alternative. Exchange and receive business cards with the right hand, and address counterparts by title and surname until invited otherwise. Punctuality is expected for meetings even though traffic can make arrivals unpredictable, so leave early from Dwarka hotels.
Language and negotiation
English is widely used in the Indian lighting and electrical trade, and most exhibitor staff at LED Expo New Delhi will present in English, with Hindi and regional languages common on the floor. Negotiation is normal on price, MOQ and warranty, especially with distributors; come with clear India-specific pricing, GST treatment and delivery terms rather than quoting on the spot.
Dress and show-floor norms
Business casual works for visitors: collared shirts and trousers or smart dresses, with comfortable shoes for long walks between Hall 1 and the surrounding facilities. Exhibitor teams usually wear branded polo shirts or formals. December mornings are cool enough for a light jacket, and halls warm up by afternoon.
Food, water and health
Drink bottled or filtered water rather than tap water, and choose freshly cooked hot food at hotel restaurants and venue outlets. Vegetarian options are widely available across Delhi. Carry hand sanitiser, and if you are sensitive to Delhi's December air quality, pack a mask for outdoor transfers between the metro, cabs and venue gates.
Security, tipping and photography
Expect bag screening at the Yashobhoomi complex and at metro stations, so allow time and avoid carrying prohibited items. Tipping is not mandatory but 10 percent at restaurants and small amounts for hotel staff are appreciated. Ask exhibitors before photographing stands or product displays, and confirm whether a stand permits close-up photography of new fixtures.
Practical guides
Everything needed to arrive prepared, navigate the event, and make the visit productive.
Destination: DEL
Fly into Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL), preferably Terminal 3, which has the shortest road and metro transfer to the Yashobhoomi complex in Dwarka Sector 25. Delhi is served by direct flights from most Indian metros and from Gulf, Southeast Asian and European hubs, so one-stop itineraries are common. Book 6-10 weeks ahead for the 17-19 December 2026 window, because December is a busy leisure and wedding season in Delhi and fares rise closer to the date. Allow a generous connection buffer on morning arrivals in case of fog delays, and keep a digital and printed copy of your ticket and hotel booking for airport and hotel check-in.
All foreign nationals entering India must hold a valid national passport together with a visa issued by an Indian Mission/Post or an eVisa from the Bureau of Immigration, Ministry of Home Affairs. Foreigners and OCI card holders can also submit an e-Arrival card online within 72 hours before arrival; the e-Arrival card is arrival information only and does not replace a visa.
Processing: Varies by nationality; apply several weeks before travel.
Visa on Arrival is limited to nationals of Japan, South Korea and certain UAE nationals who previously held an Indian eVisa or regular visa, and is available only at selected airports. The Government of India does not authorise agents or intermediaries to charge fees for emergency, express, eVisas or the e-Arrival card, so apply only through the official portal.
OfficialGet to the venue and around the city with these options.
Airport → venue: Primary gateways: Indira Gandhi International (DEL). Allow road or rail time to Hall 1, Yashobhoomi (India International Convention & Expo Centre); on-site parking is usually available at major exhibition venues.
Hotel → venue: Precinct hotels near Hall 1, Yashobhoomi (India International Convention & Expo Centre): New Delhi: Hotel Viraj Residency; New Delhi: Hotel Golden Oasis Delhi; New Delhi: The Grand Uddhav.
Ride-hail: Ola, Uber and BluSmart are the main app-based ride services in New Delhi, with airport pickups at designated app-cab zones outside Terminal 3 arrivals. Fares to Yashobhoomi in Dwarka Sector 25 typically run in the low hundreds of rupees for the 13-14 km trip, but surge pricing is common on show mornings and during the evening peak. Set the pickup pin to the correct Yashobhoomi gate rather than the general complex name, keep the driver's call in English or Hindi, and pay through the app to avoid cash disputes. BluSmart is a useful all-electric option if your company has sustainability travel rules.
Public transit: The Delhi Metro is the most reliable way to reach LED Expo New Delhi without traffic risk. The Airport Express Line connects IGI Airport with Yashobhoomi Dwarka Sector 25 in roughly 20-25 minutes, and the Blue Line links central Delhi, Connaught Place and Dwarka Sector 21 for onward interchange into the Dwarka Sector 25 corridor. Trains run from early morning to late evening, fares are paid with a metro QR ticket or stored-value card, and stations have bag screening. DTC and cluster buses also serve Dwarka, but are slower and less convenient with luggage; confirm the last-train time on your return day.
Parking: Yashobhoomi has parking areas serving the convention and exhibition halls, with separate allocations for exhibitors, visitors and buses during large events. Expect paid or badge-controlled entry on show days, typically in the low hundreds of rupees per day for cars, and follow marshals toward the Hall 1 access points rather than parking along Dwarka Sector 25 approach roads. Exhibitors with build-up vehicles need organiser-issued passes and pre-booked unloading slots. Confirm the current tariffs and gate numbers with Messe Frankfurt India or the venue before you drive.
Plan and pack for the event climate.
Month: December
Temperature: Approx. 7-10°C at night to 18-23°C in the afternoon (Delhi winter band; confirm the forecast in the week before travel)
Seasonality: December falls in Delhi's dry winter season, with low rainfall totals and mostly clear days. The seasonal risk is dense morning fog, which can delay flights and slow road traffic between the airport, Dwarka hotels and Yashobhoomi; air quality is also typically poor in December.
Packing: Pack layers rather than one heavy coat: a warm jacket or wool layer for evenings and early mornings, light shirts or tops for the 18-23°C afternoons inside and outside the halls, and comfortable closed shoes for walking the exhibition floor. Add a mask for outdoor transfers given December air quality, a universal power adapter for India's type D and G sockets, a power bank for long show days, and a compact umbrella for the occasional winter shower.
