HIREland 2026 – Ireland’s rental equipment sector will take centre stage on 26 March 2026, when the National Basketball Arena in Dublin hosts HIREland, the country’s first-ever exhibition created specifically for the Rental Equipment, Tool Hire, Powered Access, and job-site technology markets.
Presented in association with MCS Rental Software and Husqvarna, the show has been designed to match the needs of a rapidly expanding and increasingly technology-focused rental market.
Richard Wynne, Husqvarna Construction National Sales and Business Development Manager, at Liffey Distributors, said. “We were so pleased when we were first approached about an association role in HIREland, a show in our opinion that Ireland has needed for some. We will be optimising the event to launch and propel the Husqvarna rental ready range of construction products and dust extraction to hirers throughout Ireland.”
The right moment
Event Directors Jeff Schofield and Brian Coogan say the show arrives at exactly the right moment for the industry:
“A plant, tool and powered access event in Ireland is long overdue. Given the past decade of market growth, HIREland will be a real asset to the Irish rental sector.
The event, positioned in March will enable hirers and suppliers to meet at the end of busy quarter one to assess and determine the additional equipment needed to sustain growth throughout 2026 and beyond.”
Megan Young, Head of Marketing, at MCS Rental Software, said ” We are delighted to be an associate sponsor of HIREland and look forward to meeting rental companies across Ireland at the event. At MCS we recognise that every hire business is different, the very reason our solution is tailored to match the needs of every hirer and their unique processes”.
Megan went on to say ” Innovation is at the heart of everything we do. MCS integrate and align systems with hirers existing software from accounting to telematics. Meaning rental companies can focus less on the laborious admin tasks of running their business and instead focus on rental growth”.
