Description

Fiera di Verona chose GMP, the renowned Hamburg-based group, leader in international fair design (projects completed include the Rimini, Hannover and Leipzig fairs) to give a fresher look to the Fair, and soon make it one of the most modern exhibition centres in Europe. The first section of this ambitious project was completed in April 2006, just in time for the Vinitaly show. Two new 20,000 m2 pavilions were inaugurated on this occasion, which add to the previous ten. The project as a whole envisages a larger roofed area, from the current 125,000 m2 to 185,000 m2, and falls in the frame of the development of the infrastructures, rationalizing spaces and renewing its image. Work has already been completed to improve traffic inside the grounds, by cutting journey and fitting time. The second stage entails a further expansion of the roofed area (16,000 m2), the building of an 18,000 m2 tunnel that will cut the area from east to west, the layout, if not the reconstruction of all pavilions and the design of new parking facilities for over 1,000 cars under the main entrance. The third stage will see the completion of the citadel (32,000 m2), with Fiera di Verona acquiring new areas to add to the existing site. The total investment of about 152 million euro restores the ambitions and the challenge undertaken by Fiera di Verona to stand up to competition and become the international leader in the fair and congress market.

Places to go

Places to go

Verona is a museum-city alternating Roman, Gothic and Renaissance art, a city of unquestionable beauty, whose watercourses and hills, colours and urban landscapes have inspired many an artist. Home to Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, its visitors cannot but stand rapt in awe at its sight.

Piazza delle Erbe The most beautiful square in Verona, hosting a multicoloured market and rows of buildings dating back to the Della Scala times. Taking via Cappello leads you eventually to Juliet’s house.

Piazza dei Signori A harmonious blend of fine buildings (Town Hall, Capitanio, Prefecture, Council loggia).

Duomo Completed at the end of the 16th century, the cathedral features an elegant tuff Romanesque façade on two levels and a small loggia. Opposite the cathedral, stands the wonderful cloister.

San Zeno Maggiore Marvellous Italian Renaissance monument, hosting various masterpieces, including one by Mantegna.

Arena Third-largest amphitheatre in Italy and symbol of Verona. The Arena has come back to life as the seat of a prestigious international opera season.
