OUR EXHIBITION CENTRE IN THE HEART OF EUROPE
About us
Palexpo is the international exhibition and congress center in Geneva. Our single block space of 106,000m2 is located nearby Geneva airport and train station. At the crossroad of European highways heading to France, Italy, Germany and the rest of Switzerland, we have 2,800 parking spaces available on-site.
Our dynamic team offers a wide range of state-of-the-art services. Our catering services stand out! A mix variety and good value for money.
All kinds of events are taking place throughout the year: exhibitions, congresses, shows and sports competitions.
Since 1981, we have striven to upgrade our infrastructures and expand our range of services.
We have hosted Davis Cup, the Geneva International Horse Show and the Supercross, as well as a series of professional events such as the Watches & Wonders Geneva (formerly the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie – SIHH), Vitafoods – a forum for European professionals in the food industry, INDEX – a nonwovens exhibition, and EPHJ – an exhibition for watchmaking subcontracting and microtechnology.
