Fiera Milano City

Before there was the gigantic, ultra-modern Fieramilano, there was Fieramilanocity located in the heart of Milano, Italy. This building is considered to be only part of the historic fairgrounds, which had to be partially dismantled in 2007 and 2008 as a way to make room for new developments in the city centre. The history of Fieramilanocity dates back to the start of the last century when the World’s Fair was first hosted in 1906, but it wasn’t until 1923 that the building we all know and love opened doors in its current location, where it was expanded once in 1997. Right now, Fieramilanocity lies on a territory of 43,000 m² (460,00 sq. ft.) that is divided into four pavilions.

Fieramilanocity is located in a central area, so it’s serviced by the metro and the suburban train system. A parking area is available on the roof and the total capacity is for 800 car parks. This, in turn, makes the exhibition centre mostly suitable for smaller events and events that benefit from being in the city like fashion events. Though most of the trade fairs and exhibitions have since moved to Fieramilano outside the city premises. One of the most notable events to be held at the old fairgrounds is Si Sposaitalia Collezioni, which is a notable fashion event for the bridal sector.
