Since 2004.Twenty-one editions.
EverythingAboutWater began because India's water problems and India's water solutions existed in the same country and almost never in the same room. The exhibition is the physical form of that idea.
The platform is run by Earth Water Foundation. It started in 2004 as the EverythingAboutWater Expo and is now EAW Global Aqua Expo. In 2026 it reached its twenty-first edition, at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi, with 159 exhibiting companies and 5,261 registered visitors.
The next edition is EAW Global Aqua Expo 2028, at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi from 22 to 24 March 2028. The move to March takes the show out of the monsoon and places it ahead of the new financial year, when plants, utilities and dealers set their budgets. A separate southern exhibition, EAW Expo Hyderabad, runs at HITEX from 29 to 31 January 2027.
Alongside the exhibition the organisation runs state level water conclaves, an awards programme, a certified training arm and a publishing and knowledge business.
