Arte Fiera 2025
Arte Fiera is an annual Italian exhibition representing modern and contemporary art pieces. The approaching 2025 edition will be held from 7 to 9 February 2025 in the elegant 25 and 26 halls of Bologna Fiera.
Arte Fiera 2025 will expand with a new display section for emerging artists and galleries. Another novelty for all visitors will be the special program for international curators and critics. The two new initiatives are as follows:
- Prospettiva - a section for emerging artists with invitation-only admission, aiming to focus more on new talented artists;
- A special hospitality program - organised for international museum directors and curators, tailored to attract professionals outside Italy.
Arte Fiera Bologna 2025 will include a main section for post-war and contemporary art with four more invitation-only zones: Photography and moving images, Pittura XXI, Multiples, and the newly announced Prospettiva. The 2025 expo’s complimentary program will include workshops, talks and special spaces for participants to benefit from networking and effective collaborations with other art professionals.
Bologna is an attractive all-year-round visited destination, so we advise you to organise your travel to Arte Fiera 2025 in advance. You can send the ExpoBeds team your travel preferences, and we will prepare a personalised offer for you, consisting of hotels near Bologna Fiera.

Information
Arte Fiera plays a significant role in the European and global art world. Focusing on post-war and contemporary art, this event gathers artists, galleries, and other art-dedicated professionals in the emblematic and elegant Bolognia Fair Halls.
Arte Fiera, founded in 1974 with a small section dedicated to modern and contemporary art, quickly established itself as a notable art fair - among the few with such a long history. Starting with just ten galleries, it has grown to showcase the art pieces of over 200 galleries today.
Who can you meet there
Arte Fiera brings together established and emerging artists, galleries, collectors, critics, institutions, teachers, and publishers to present 20th-century and contemporary art.
Focusing on the upcoming trends, the art exhibition aims to attract Italian and international participants willing to experience art in all of its forms.
