Posidonia Exhibitions SA is a leading organiser of trade fairs in Greece, and operates through its headquarters located in Piraeus, Greece.

Posidonia, the international shipping exhibition, has long been established as one of the major calendar events of the shipping industry, and Posidonia 2018 attracted the most influential personalities from the Greek and international shipping community and major companies and organisations active in all sectors of the shipping industry. The international exhibition Posidonia first took place in 1969 and has been taking place every two years ever since.

Posidonia 2018 was the largest in terms of exhibition space and most publicised event in the exhibitions’ 50-year history and has become the largest trade show in Greece.

Posidonia not only serves as a bridge linking the international shipping industry with the Greek shipowners, who operate the largest fleet globally of over 4,000 vessels, the largest under the control of any national group, but also serves as the platform that brings international shipowners in touch with the latest developments in the shipping industry and offers them direct access to the entire range of shipping products and services available on the international shipping market.

During Posidonia week, a number of networking sporting events take place including, the Posidonia Cup sailing race in Faliron Bay, Piraeus, the Posidonia Shipsoccer Tournament, a one-day 5×5 soccer tournament for the shipping industry, the Posidonia Golf Tournament, as well as the Posidonia Running Event in Piraeus.

Exhibiting Info

Posidonia continues as the global marketplace for shipbuilders, suppliers of ships’ equipment and shipping-related services. Expect keen interest from technical and commercial executives from Greek and international companies in the busy exhibition halls.

As always, the Posidonia exhibition will be strongly attended by Greek shipowners, and exhibitors will find that their technical and operations managers are keen to investigate the latest equipment, technologies, financial and service offerings.

Greek owners are investing heavily in cutting-edge technology for quality assurance, regulatory compliance and environmental protection. They continue to be the mainstay of the many financial, insurance, classification and professional institutions that are their partners in making such a major contribution to global seaborne trading.

The same is true of buyers from the international organisations that together create the largest commercial gathering in the shipping calendar.

Posidonia 2022 provides both open space options and shell scheme packages, to best meet your needs. We can help you identify which stand option will help you gain brand recognition and fruitful meetings on the exhibition floor.

As the exhibition area spreads out over 40,000 sqm and exhibition space is divided into Premium A, Premium B and Standard areas, choosing the best stand location and optimum size for your products/services is our priority.
