As you may know, Milan is the ideal city for business and meetings between different national and international companies. Moreover, the Italian trade fair system sees in Milan its main center, both for its modern infrastructures, for its geographical position, and also for investments in terms of communication, development, and research.
The relationship between Milan and trade fairs began at the beginning of the 20th century when the great Universal Exposition of 1906 was inaugurated and the city started to love exhibitions. It was at that moment that the city began to invest in this sense.
Today, the city of Milan carries out its trade fair events in two exhibition centers of excellence for the entire Italian territory. We are talking about Fieramilano, located in an area near the town of Rho, and Fieramilanocity, situated in the Portello district. Adding the two poles together, we obtain an area of over 500,000 m² that makes Lombard city the largest exhibition center in Europe.
Trade fair events start up again, the next 12 months to be experienced by everyone
More than a year after March 2020, when the covid-19 pandemic broke out, all the most important trade fair events are starting to return with great force, and even if, with some difficulty, they will be held in Milan's exhibition venues next year.
The most frenetic Italian metropolis is, therefore, ready to welcome back visitors from all over the world.
September - December 2021 fairs, moving towards recovery from the coronavirus pandemic
This final part of 2021 in which there are still some limitations due to the continuing pandemic crisis will however be characterized by the return of some very important fairs such as Miart, contemporary art fair, modern and design, or even HOMI Fashion and Jewels that presents the art of jewelry, accessories, and fashion related to it, in a city that is the founder of these topics. There will be specific events dedicated to the textile industry, railways, or even international craftsmanship and we are only in September.
In October, instead, the doors of the Franchising Exhibition will open, as well as Tutto Food Milano, which connects our agro-food system with that of other countries, promoting the exchange of culture and international innovation.
November and December will see Milan involved in the realization of EICMA, the international exhibition of bicycles and motorcycles that since 1914 reminds us of the importance of traveling on two wheels or even Artimondo, a fair dedicated to craftsmanship at 360 degrees, from food to jewelry, from health to beauty and body care, capable of bringing together thousands of exhibitors.
At the beginning of a new year, the fairs of January - March 2022
The new year, which will hopefully put the pandemic emergency behind us once and for all, will begin with a great initiative involving all road transport professionals, with all the latest news in the sector from both the network and technical points of view. In February, on the other hand, is finally expected to return in the presence of the Bit - The Great International Tourism Exchange that will find us a stay all over the world feeding our desire to travel and discover.
Speaking of which, it is also fair to suggest to those who visit the fairs in Milan a stay in the city that is convenient both in terms of infrastructure and location: on this, we can recommend Hotel Morfeo, which is only 10 minutes from Fiera Milano City and the MICO Congress Center, and is also quite close to the San Siro Stadium. A state-of-the-art structure with a unique design that offers high-profile services for rest and business. In short, for those who choose to venture into the world of trade shows and international events in Milan, this hotel is absolutely the best.
Returning to the trade shows, March will be a month all about energy efficiency and consumption. A major international event dedicated to companies will take place next spring and will be entirely dedicated to renewable energy and green issues.
The events of next spring, April - September 2022
Next spring-summer 2022 is still to be written, but there are already many organizers trying to grab space for their exhibition events, given the competition in terms of dates. For sure, there will be the return of Miart, which we mentioned at the beginning of this article, but there will also be a great edition of the Salone del Mobile, an event dedicated to design and furniture that since 1961 has been an absolute reference point for the sector. Between May and September 2022 instead, there will be the Salone del Tessile and events dedicated to industrial plant engineering or even exhibitions on jewelry, bijoux, and retail. In short, there will be something to learn and discover, Milan is the right city to do it. You just have to run to the city!
