Founded in 1929 by the Municipality of Bari, the Provincial Administration and the local Chamber of Commerce, Fiera del Levante has been operating ever since to achieve its primary goal: encourage the dialogue between the West and the East, keeping faith with its name and serving as a bridge between the Adriatic coast and Central and Eastern Mediterranean. The exhibition and conference centre covers a total area of about 280,000 square metres and hosts several national and international trade shows, conferences, conventions, and/or events. Located within the Exhibition Center, the Congress Center offers 8 modular rooms with natural light, adaptable to any type of event, with a total capaciy of up to 530 seats ideal for both small meetings and medium-sized conferences. Enhancing the Mice offering, the New Fiera del Levante also features a 16,000 sqm pavilion capable of hosting up to 6,000 participants, making it one of the largest and best equipped congress facilities in southern Italy. Each room is equipped with a modern technology to ensure an optimal experience for both speakers and participants. In addition, a dedicated team is always available to provide technical and organizational support before, during and after the event. Thanks to its strategic location, the New Fiera del Levante is easily accessible: just 10 minutes from Bari-Palese Airport and the central train station, only 2 km from the city center, and close to major highway connections. An on-site parking garage with approximately 480 spaces and pedestrian access is also available, perfectly connected to public transportation stops.
The new hall, covering an area of some 16,000 square metres, allows different layouts for plenary sessions with 2,000 to 4,000 seats (up to 9,000 for particular events), ensuring top-quality accommodation and a renovated conference centre, able to meet the needs of every organizer.
