Modern, easily accessible venue
ITMA 2011 will take place at the modern Fira de Barcelona Gran Vía fairground, a complex of over 240,000 square metres. The exhibition facility features state-of-the-art trade fair technology in all its eight interconnected exhibition halls.
Easily accessible, the fairground is just minutes away from the city centre and only 10 kilometres from Barcelona's international airport, which has links to destinations all over the world.
Mr Johann-Philipp Dilo, President of the Dilo Group Germany enthused “ITMA is quite simply a 'one-stop-shop' which attracts leading buyers from all over the world and from all areas of the textile industry, including the important non-wovens and technical textiles sector. “We are looking forward to the next show in 2011, and believe that the city of Barcelona will also attract a great number of buyers from the established and rapidly emerging markets of Central and South America because of its historical, linguistic and cultural links with these countries.”
The ITMA 2011 exhibition is expected to cover over 100,000 square metres net and attract more than 1,400 international exhibiting companies. Online application for space opens on 30 November 2009.
