Rita Beltrami
Espoprofessioni President

We have come a long way since the first professional fair in 1991, which is now the largest fair of its kind in Ticino: Espoprofessioni has become a tradition and takes place every two years in the exhibition center in spring.

Dario Ranza
Chef Ciani Restaurant Lugano

My experience is at disposal of the Ciani Lugano Restaurant, but also for events at the Convention Centre and in Villa Ciani, with the aim of making them meeting places in the city.

Organise your event

Lugano is the ideal location for any public or private event. All Lugano Convention & Exhibition venues can be used for different types of events, they are all located in the city centre and are well connected by the public transport system. Each structure offers unique features that can be customised according to your needs.

Combining long-held traditions and the constant addition of new suggestions, Lugano and its region prove to be a favourite backdrop for organising and attending events. Encourage enthusiasm to help create movement.

Procurement

Conference activity is one of the main cornerstones of the city's development, both in terms of prestige and economics. It is known that congress activity promotes the development of economic, scientific and cultural ties, which, in turn, tend to improve the quality of the citizens' life in various respects, such as, for example, the economic impact on local service providers and, consequently, on the city welfare. Furthermore, many other aspects, not directly related to the congress world, take advantage from that: just to mention some of those: general security; regional and international connections; tourism and leisure; increase of local scientific, cultural and business activities.
