    MWC Barcelona is the global mobile and telecommunications industry's annual flagship, drawing roughly 95,000 trade visitors across four days with C-suite participation density unmatched by any other European technology fair.

    After

    MWC Barcelona is the global mobile and telecommunications industry's annual flagship, drawing more than 100,000 attendees across four days with C-suite participation density unmatched by any other European technology fair.

    Why: MWC Barcelona trade-visitor figure of 95,000 understates recent editions; GSMA-reported total attendance for MWC25 was 109,000 and MWC26 approximately 105,000.
