Feria Valencia

The official name of this building is ‘Feria Muestrario Internacional de Valencia,’ but locals usually name it ‘Feria Valencia.’ You will find this exhibition hall about 15 minutes from the city centre. The hall is used for a lot of purposes.

The growth of Feria de Valencia

The 10th of May 1917 an annual fair was organised for the first time in the well-known railway station of Valencia: Estación del Norte. Almost 150 stalls presented things like furniture and decorative items. The fair was a great success and was organised year after year. Only in 1921 and between 1936 and 1942 (Spanish Civil War) the fair didn’t take place.

The Feria kept growing and a new, bigger location was needed. The municipality of Valencia decided to build a brand new building on its actual location. Just outside the city centre, in the economic area of the city. Right now the Feria Valencia offers 230.000 m² which can be used for expositions, conventions, concerts and any other type of events. The building has a capacity of 20.000 visitors. More than 100 events take place every year and therefore it is one of the most successful fairs in the country. Furthermore, Feria Valencia is the oldest Feria of Spain.

An outstanding building: ‘medio huevo’

The Feria Valencia is formed out of different buildings. There are three main buildings: ‘Foro Centro,’ ‘Foro Norte’ and ‘Centro de Convenciones.’ The most iconic building is the ‘Centro de Convenciones’ which has an amazing shape. Its walls are made of glass and on top of it, there is a fancy dome, made of glass as well. With a little bit of imagination, some see the shape of a snail. Others think it looks more like a brain. The citizens of Valencia used to call it ‘medio huevo,’ which means ‘half egg.’
