LABACE 2025, the 20th edition of the Latin American Business Aviation Conference and Exhibition, is taking place from August 5 to 7, 2025, at Campo de Marte Airport in São Paulo, Brazil. As the most significant business aviation event in Latin America, LABACE 2025 brings together major aircraft manufacturers, suppliers, MROs, FBOs, and aviation regulators from across the region and around the world. This year’s event features a prominent static display of business jets, turboprops, and helicopters, with over 100 exhibitors and thousands of visitors expected.
One of the highlights of LABACE 2025 is the Latin American debut of the Cessna SkyCourier, presented by Textron Aviation alongside other models, including the Citation Latitude, CJ4 Gen2, M2 Gen2, Beechcraft King Air 260, and Grand Caravan EX. This event commemorates 40 years of Textron’s service in the region. Piper Aircraft is also present, showcasing its training and general aviation models, which reflect the growing demand for pilot development and light aviation in Brazil and its surrounding markets.
The event’s conference program features panel discussions and presentations that cover safety culture, environmental and ESG goals in aviation, regulatory updates from Brazil’s ANAC, workforce development, and the expanding role of regional aviation across South America. Topics such as mental health in aviation and key performance indicators (KPIs) for operational excellence are also being discussed.
Beyond the aircraft and panels, LABACE remains a vital networking hub for deal-making and collaboration among operators, service providers, and government authorities. Business development, strategic partnerships, and aircraft acquisitions are frequently initiated at LABACE, cementing its role as a catalyst for aviation growth in the region.
Held at the centrally located Campo de Marte Airport, the event is supported by the Brazilian General Aviation Association (ABAG). It aligns with Brazil’s growing focus on improving infrastructure, enhancing aviation safety, and expanding the country’s role in global business aviation. With increasing interest in turboprops, training aircraft, and sustainable solutions, LABACE 2025 reflects the shifting dynamics of Latin America’s aviation ecosystem.
