The Fiera Bolzano site and logistics
Fiera Bolzano offers multiple halls and exhibitor services including FieraMesse Studios and the H1 Eventspace. The operator highlights an EarthCheck Silver certification in 2025 and technical services such as the Neogy e-charging HUB, relevant for electric demonstration fleets.

Closing note and official link
If your aim is to secure pilot customers in tourism and catering, align your stand activity around two goals: secure pilot trials and build a prioritized post-fair lead list. Registration, stand services and the full schedule are available on the official TipWorld 2026 website at https://www.fierabolzano.it/it/tipworld. Arriving with a three-offer commercial package and committing to 72-hour follow-up increases the chance of converting contacts into contracts.
