The Bozen trade fair ( Fiera Bolzano in Italian ) is a supraregional business fair that is based in the Bozen Süd trade zone (former Bozen industrial zone). It sees itself as the most important contact exchange between companies from German-speaking countries and Italy for the entire European Alpine arc . The trade fairs and congresses focus on Alpine economic issues. Bozen Exhibition Center draws on distinctive areas of expertise from the Trentino-South Tyrol region for its development strategies. The main topics of leisure, agriculture , gastronomy , tourism , education and special alpine industrial topics now attract over 3,000 exhibitors and 230,000 visitors from all over Europe every year .
history
The big annual fairs, which established Bolzano's reputation as an intersection between the commercial centers of Venice and Augsburg since the Middle Ages , are considered to be the forerunners of the Bolzano trade fair. For the first time around 1450 these fairs were called "fair" . From 1635 to 1851 Bolzano had its own mercantile magistrate , which acted as a commercial court during trade fairs and was subsequently replaced in its function by a chamber of commerce . In 1948 the first modern fair, the so-called sample fair (today autumn fair), was held. The symbol of the fair at that time, a gentian with various national flags as petals, represents the international orientation of the Bolzano fair. The first sample fairs took place at the court square , but it soon became too small. Therefore, in 1951, the exhibition grounds in Romstrasse ( Europa-Neustift district ) were acquired and in 1952 they moved into. In the 1970s, various special trade fairs were set up, starting with the Alpine Agriculture Show (now AgriAlp), which is held every two years. In 1998 the trade fair moved to its current location, where 25,000 m² are available in the multi-purpose hall and 15,000 m² of open space. An autonomous corporation under public law since it was founded, the fair was constituted at the beginning of 2003 as a public limited company, the main shareholder of which is the Autonomous Province of Bolzano (62%); other shareholders are the Trentino-Alto Adige Region (21%), the Bozen Chamber of Commerce (4%), the City of Bozen (5%), the Hotel and Hospitality Association (HGV), the National Association of Craftsmen (LVH) and the trade and Service Association South Tyrol (hds).

reachability
In 1998, the Bozen Süd exhibition center on the Bozen – Merano railway line was opened for the trade fair (the small Bozen Süd stop south of it was closed), which enables barrier-free access. The two car parks at the fair have a total of 1,300 spaces. The city bus lines 10B and 10A (circular lines in both directions) travel to the fair every day at least every 15 minutes. Line 6 runs to the fair on weekdays at least every half hour. The fair is also connected to the bike path network of the city of Bolzano.
