Cersaie 2026 to host international ceramic and design exhibition in Bologna

The 43rd edition of Cersaie is scheduled to take place from September 21 to 25, 2026, at the Bologna Exhibition Centre. Spanning 155,000 square metres, the event serves as an international forum for ceramic surfaces, bathroom furnishings, and architectural design.

The cultural programme, titled “Building, Dwelling, Thinking,” will feature lectures from prominent figures including Alejandro Aravena and Annabelle Selldorf. Discussions will cover topics such as infrastructure design, Italian architecture, and urban planning.

Participating companies, such as Wow Design, will showcase new collections and innovative concepts. Wow Design plans to present ten new collections and “The Unexpected,” a project designed by Summumstudio that utilizes recyclable and low-impact materials to explore the creative possibilities of ceramics in architecture and design.
