Bologna: unmissable trade fairs

Each year, Bologna’s trade fair calendar is full of high-profile, internationally recognized events that attract thousands of exhibitors and professionals from around the world.

The city’s cultural identity also shines through with Arte Fiera, one of Italy’s most prestigious modern and contemporary art fairs, and the Bologna Children’s Book Fair, a landmark event for children’s publishing.

But there's truly something for everyone: Autopromotec highlights Bologna’s role as a strategic hub for the automotive business, while CERSAIE, the international exhibition for ceramic and bathroom furnishings, draws architects, designers, and industry professionals from all over the world.
