Rimini is a capital of conventions and major trade fairs. Completed in 2001 and expanded in 2017, Fiera di Rimini (Rimini’s trade fair), designed by Gmp, the Hamburg-based firm, is one of the largest exhibition centers in Italy. Entirely on one level, it has 189,000 square meters of usable space, of which 129,000 for exhibitions and 60,000 for other services, and is equipped with 24 modular conference rooms, as well as a dedicated railway station, on the Milan-Bari line.
Ultramodern, located near the city center, the Palacongressi di Rimini is one of the most versatile, refined and advanced convention centres on an international level. With 39 rooms, capable of accommodating 9,000 people, Rimini's Palacongressi can host multiple simultaneous events. The large outdoor park is crossed by bike and pedestrian paths connecting the centre to the adjacent artificial lake, to the old town on one side and to the Rimini seafront on the other.
