Rimini Fiera

The Expo Centre, launched in 2001 and designed by Hamburg’s Studio GMP, is located at the north end of the town, occupies a total area of 460,000 square metres (160,000 of which are landscaped green areas) and has its own on-site railway station on the Milan-Bari line.

With its extension (the first stage of which was finished in 2004, the second will finish in August 2006), Rimini Expo Centre will have 169,000 square metres of useable space, 109,000 of gross expo space, 16 halls on ground floor level, air-conditioned and able to blacked out, reception, technical and service areas, modular conference rooms seating up to 730, a practical hi-tech business centre, a press room with a national radio/TV uplink centre, à la carte and free-flow restaurants, eateries, parking space for 10,600 cars with motor home service facilities and a helicopter landing site with bookable helitaxi service.

The centre’s layout is all on one level and entirely cabled; three separate entrances, linked by shuttle bus, enable several expos or events to be held simultaneously.
