FILDA, the Luanda International Fair, is Angola's largest and most important international trade fair, a broad multi-sector showcase spanning industry, energy, construction, agriculture, services and consumer goods. It draws Angolan and international companies, government bodies, investors and trade delegations for several days of exhibitions and business networking. The 2026 edition is set at the ZEE Luanda-Bengo exhibition park in the Icolo e Bengo area outside Luanda. For a hotel-booking traveller this location is significant: the venue sits toward the same southeastern zone as Angola's new Dr. Antonio Agostinho Neto International Airport, some distance from central Luanda, so choosing between staying near the city or nearer the airport-and-venue corridor shapes the daily commute. Luanda has a limited stock of international-standard hotels and can be an expensive city, so early booking and arranged ground transport matter. Understanding the spread-out geography between the airport, the exhibition park and the city centre is essential when planning rooms and transfers.
Popular areas for attendees: Talatona · Ilha de Luanda · Baixa/City Centre.
- The ZEE exhibition park sits outside central Luanda in the Icolo e Bengo area, so location choice heavily affects daily travel time.
- Luanda's supply of international-standard hotels is limited and demand during FILDA is strong, making early booking important.
- The new Agostinho Neto airport lies toward the same southeastern zone as the venue, so an airport-corridor base can shorten venue trips.
- Ground transport is best arranged in advance, so a hotel that can organise reliable transfers simplifies each day.

Pay Weekly: common questions
Do I pay any interest?
No. There is no interest and no extra charge. Your plan total is exactly the hotel price shown when you book. The only fee we ever charge is a processing fee on cash refunds (see 'What fees apply?').
How many payments can I make?
Depending on how far away your trip is, you can split your booking into between 2 and 16 weekly payments. The exact schedule is shown before you book.
What happens after I pay my deposit?
Your hotel is booked and confirmed immediately. You receive your booking confirmation and your full payment schedule by email, and the remaining payments are charged automatically each week.
How are the weekly payments taken?
Automatically. After your first payment, each weekly payment is charged to your saved card, and we send you a reminder 2 days before every charge. In a few countries where automatic card charges are not allowed, we email you a secure payment link each week instead. You can switch to a different card at any time.
Can I pay early?
Yes. Sign in to your Event Escapes account at any time and pay off your remaining balance in one payment, whenever it suits you. There is never a fee for paying early.
What happens if I miss a payment?
We retry your card automatically and email you a secure payment link so you can pay another way, plus a final notice with one link to clear the remaining balance. If the plan still cannot be completed, we cancel the room before its free-cancellation deadline and everything you have paid goes into your Event Escapes Wallet in full. You never lose the money you have paid. You can turn that credit into a cash refund at any time (the processing fee applies).
Where to eat during FILDA - Feira Internacional de Luanda
The ZEE exhibition park is way out in Viana, a 40-70 minute drive from the city, and Luanda dining is genuinely limited and eye-wateringly expensive by regional standards, so plan around central Luanda and the Ilha de Luanda strip where the good seafood is. Always arrange a car and pay in kwanza where you can, as USD-linked prices bite.

Widely rated the best seafood in town, with grilled giant prawns and octopus; the reliable choice for a memorable client dinner despite the ~$60-plus-a-head sting.

Getting there
From Dr. Antonio Agostinho Neto International (NBJ)
- Angola's new main international airport is located southeast of Luanda, in the broader Icolo e Bengo area toward the venue.
- Arrange a hotel transfer or reputable car in advance, as the airport is well outside the city centre.
- Confirm current transfer options, as services around the new airport are still developing.
To and from central Luanda
- Central Luanda holds most of the city's hotels, dining and business district but is a drive from the venue.
- Allow generous time for Luanda's often heavy traffic between the city, airport and exhibition park.
- A pre-booked driver is the most reliable way to move between these dispersed points.
Getting around during FILDA - Feira Internacional de Luanda
Private car and transfers
- A pre-arranged car with driver is the most practical way to reach the venue and move around Luanda.
- Confirm pickup and return times with your hotel or provider, given the venue's out-of-city location.
- Traffic can be heavy, so build in buffer time for daily commutes.
Taxis and ride options
- Use hotel-recommended taxis or arranged transport rather than hailing on the street.
- Agree fares or use a trusted provider before travelling.
- Availability at the exhibition park may be limited, so plan return trips ahead.
Visa & entry
Visa access for many visitors
- Angola has eased entry in recent years, with visa-free access for some nationalities and an eVisa or visa-on-arrival option for others.
- Requirements vary by nationality, so check whether you qualify for visa-free, eVisa or an advance visa.
- Carry proof of accommodation, onward travel and any required health documentation.
Who needs an advance visa
- Nationals not covered by visa-free or eVisa arrangements must obtain a visa from an Angolan mission before travel.
- Business visitors may need an invitation or supporting letter from a local host or the organiser.
- Verify current health entry requirements, which can apply for Angola.
Entry rules change; confirm current requirements with the Angola embassy or official immigration site before booking travel.
First time at FILDA - Feira Internacional de Luanda?
- Arrange airport transfers and daily transport in advance, as the venue and airport sit well outside central Luanda.
- Luanda can be expensive, so budget accordingly and confirm hotel rates and inclusions upfront.
- Check current health entry requirements and carry any needed documentation.
- Carry some local currency and confirm card acceptance, which can vary by venue.
Insider tips from repeat attendees
- A base near the airport-and-venue corridor can cut daily travel versus staying in central Luanda.
- Book a reliable driver for the full trip rather than relying on ad hoc transport at the exhibition park.
- Confirm the exact venue location and access route, as the new ZEE park and airport area are still developing.
- Reserve international-standard hotels early, since Luanda's supply is limited during major events.
