The DCW Onsite Arena is a replica construction site where exhibitors and partners will showcase their technologies ‘in the field’.  Running in partnership with Bluebeam, the arena will feature a series of live demos and ‘walkarounds’ with the Bluebeam team, offering visitors the opportunity to get to grips with the latest technology linking from the office to the field.

Drone Drag Racing is back for 2019.  Visitors will have the chance to sign up and take flight in the show’s drone racing competition, enabling them to get hands on with the latest technology and learn about its application in the built environment, while having a little competitive fun.  It’s free to enter and winners on the top flight leader board will win a drone of their own.
