Overview

The International Pool and Spa Expo and Congress has its 17th edition currently named ForumPiscine 2026 which serves as the main trade exhibition in Italy that features swimming pools and spas and wellness centers and outdoor recreational areas and all their supporting technologies. The event takes place from 11 to 13 February 2026 at BolognaFiere in Bologna, Italy. The event brings together professionals from the industry together with manufacturers and designers and planners and enthusiasts from all over Europe and from other regions.

Focus

The expo demonstrates all aspects of pool and spa facility development from their design and planning phases to their construction process and their operational and maintenance stages. The exhibition presents the newest equipment along with accessories and water treatment systems and safety solutions and energy-efficient technologies and outdoor space design concepts. The Interior Design Furnishing Expo 2026 demonstrates how trade fairs enable professionals to share knowledge while discovering new products.

Program

The ForumPiscine event features a major exhibition space together with a congress program that presents technical design and sustainability topics through multiple sessions and workshops and discussions. Attendees have the opportunity to visit exhibitor stands while listening to expert presentations and establishing relationships with fellow attendees. The event combines two different content types together with networking activities which create an experience that resembles what occurs at DesignTO Festival 2026 and other major industry conferences.

“ForumPiscine represents a central platform in Italy for professionals and enthusiasts in the pool, spa, and outdoor wellness sectors to discover innovations, gain insights, and build industry connections.”

The event dedicated to aquatic and wellness industries follows design conventions from international design events such as Salone del Mobile Milano 2025 which showcase current design trends and emerging technologies through exhibitor displays and visitor experiences.

Audience

The show is intended for pool builders and spa builders and landscape designers and outdoor space designers and architects and hotel managers and wellness facility managers and public space planners and equipment suppliers and consultants and private individuals who want to learn about pool and outdoor solutions.

Event Details

✦ ArchUp Editorial Insight

ForumPiscine 2026 operates as a specialized platform for aquatic and outdoor wellness design, with a focus on technical systems, construction methods, and operational efficiency. The event shows architectural design through its demonstration of pool and spa spaces which display their functional abilities and experiential qualities and their water treatment systems and energy saving systems and their public and private space connections. The program shows material and technological advancements but it fails to provide substantial learning opportunities about spatial design theory and narrative creation and experimental architectural designs. The research demonstrates its practical value through actual implementation studies which assess regulatory requirements and user interactions in wellness and leisure environments.

Closing Note

ForumPiscine 2026 functions as the main trade exhibition for the pool and spa industry and outdoor wellness sector. The venue offers a combination of exhibition space and congress programs and professional networking events which create an essential meeting location for suppliers and designers and tradespeople and visitors who want to learn about aquatic and outdoor lifestyle solutions.
