Palexpo celebrates 100 years of event expertise in Geneva

In 2026, Geneva will commemorate a century of expertise in event management, beginning with the establishment of the ‘Palais des Expositions de Plainpalais’ in 1926. Since 1981, Palexpo has served as the primary successor to this legacy, building upon the foundations laid in 1926 with a versatile and forwardthinking venue that represented a pivotal development for the city. For over forty years, Palexpo’s dedicated professionals and teams have supported organisers and exhibitors from around the globe, consistently exemplifying Swiss excellence in every aspect of their work.

This centenary celebrates 100 years of expertise, passion and rigour, as well as a committed ecosystem – partners, clients, exhibitors and organisers – who work together to design today’s events and envision those of tomorrow.
