03.05.2016
The International Exhibition of nursery/floriculture and landscape, from 14th to 16th September at Rimini Fiera, will host a project dedicated to the evolution of green urban areas.
A boost for internationality and prestigious patronages
Rimini, April 2016 – Town parks as places for social aggregation, a means of urban upgrading, and a productive space able to ensure added value to tourism facilities and, therefore, a means for economic development. These aspects are at the basis of the project “I Parchi Urbani” (Town Parks), conceived by Rimini Fiera in collaboration with Studio Grassi Design in the context of Flora Trade Show - Nursery/Floriculture and Landscape Exhibition, being held at Rimini Fiera from September 14th to 16th.
Thanks also to its time slot in September, the expo, which aims at promoting nursery and floriculture production and landscape culture in every form, is the ideal moment for staging a focus on floriculture and facing the various issues connected with the design of public and private landscaped areas, as well as holding workshops focussed on the protection of the environment. All very important topics in numerous contexts: from tourism to psychophysical wellness, from the prevention of hydrogeological instability to environmental sustainability.
This is the context that hosts the “Town Parks” area, an exhibition that meets the increasing necessity inItaly and abroad, for town parks to loose their characteristics of purely passive aesthetic passive areas, to become dynamic locations. In the exhibition there will be an interactive route taking trade members through the most highly varied forms of town parks: from the green waterfront areas to parks integrating orchards and vegetable gardens, from the greenery of upgraded of disused industrial areas to historical parks, all integrated by a series of seminars, workshops, tasting sessions and training activities for the various professions. The environment recreated will be able to communicate an innovative multi-form vision of urban greenery, with a perfect combination of exhibition and side events, products and cultural content.
With its great business and professional training orientation, once again this year Flora Trade Show will stand out for its high-profile active to ensure the utmost internationality, thanks to the program of business meetings with buyer delegations from France, Belgium, Holland, Great Britain, Poland, Czech Republic, Germany, Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia Herzegovina, Montenegro, Kosovo, Macedonia, Albania, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Tunisia and Algeria.
