Description
Description
From 1921 up to today, Padova Fiere has always been headquartered in via Tommaseo, at the heart of Padua, 400 m away from the railway station. From the post-war period, the centre has been often renovated and reorganized. Recent works have doubled the exhibition space, with new technologies added to the whole property, and have designed large outside and underground parking facilities. Padova Fiere spreads over 155,000 m2, 70,000 of which roofed, and is managed as an urban complex designed to optimize spaces, splitting them up on rational guidelines. The spaces are divided into three integrated and highly flexible areas: the reception area; the multi-functional pavilions and the meeting areas. The new eastern pavilions host 7 congress halls and press rooms (in particular, the ultra-modern Press Club located on pavilion n. 7) and are joined by the historical pavilions, with technological updates added there too. Great importance is attached to the meeting spaces which, besides exhibition activities, also host 600 congresses each year, with over 40,000 visitors and 1,000 speakers. The 11 pavilions are organized around a modern logistical module capable of satisfying the widest range of requirements, even those way ahead of the times. The offering is purposely integrated to increase the business and meeting opportunities and to satisfy all sorts of users.
