Venditalia 2026
A new chapter with Italian Exhibition Group
From 6 to 8 May 2026, Venditalia will be held in Rimini for the first time, marking a pivotal moment in the exhibition’s international expansion.
2026 also marks the beginning of the collaboration between Venditalia and Italian Exhibition Group, one of the leading trade fair organisers in Europe.
A strategic move designed to strengthen presence in overseas markets, boost exports, and support the internationalisation of the entire sector.
Logistic has played a role in the choice of the expo centre: greater accessibility, a wide range of hotel options, and more competitive costs – key advantages that will encourage participation from both Italian and international exhibitors.
The future of vending
Venditalia: the engine for your business.
Venditalia 2026 offers an increasingly broad international showcase, reflecting the evolution of the market and presenting new opportunities for industry professionals.
Three days of exclusive networking and a comprehensive programme of events and conferences will focus on innovation and the challenges facing the vending sector, featuring the H24 Forum, the new SmartLink protocol, insights on Artificial Intelligence, the Innovation District with over 15 startups, and the new Smart Hospitality area dedicated to the hospitality industry.
