SEMI has announced that SEMICON West will shift to a spring calendar slot starting March 30–April 1, 2027, at the Phoenix Convention Center. Subsequent editions are scheduled for May 9–11, 2028 and April 3–5, 2029. According to SEMI, the earlier annual timing creates room in a congested second-half exhibition calendar that includes SEMICON Europa, SEMICON Taiwan, SEMICON India and SEMICON Japan, giving exhibitors and attendees across the semiconductor and electronics manufacturing supply chain more flexibility to participate in multiple events throughout the year.
Phoenix was selected as the permanent host city in part due to Arizona's rapidly expanding semiconductor ecosystem, which has attracted more than $200 billion in investments since 2020. Advanced packaging suppliers, chipmakers and associated manufacturers have established or expanded operations in the region. For European electronics manufacturing companies with North American exposure — particularly those active in semiconductor packaging, SMT materials or advanced process equipment — the new spring window reduces scheduling conflicts with autumn trade shows such as productronica.
