RiminiWellness
The large international fitness, sport, and wellness fair at Rimini Expo Centre
About RiminiWellness
RiminiWellness, the European capital of fitness and wellness
Every year, at the end of May, the Rimini Expo Centre transforms into the largest Italian gathering dedicated to fitness, sport, and wellness. RiminiWellness is an international event organized by Italian Exhibition Group (IEG) at the Rimini Expo Centre, in the Municipality of Rimini, Province of Rimini (Emilia-Romagna). For four days, the exhibition halls and the entire Romagna Riviera are filled with stages, equipment, masterclasses, and competitions involving industry professionals and general enthusiasts.
A fair that is also a great live event
Unlike a traditional fair, RiminiWellness puts movement at its center: thousands of hours of group workouts animate the numerous stages active simultaneously, from the historic Zumba Stage to areas dedicated to functional training, cross-training, yoga, and Pilates. The event is structured into several macro-themed areas ranging from fitness to health, from functional nutrition (FoodWell) to emerging disciplines.
Competitions and major guests
The sports calendar is one of the event's strengths, with international-level appointments attracting professional athletes and amateurs. Among the most anticipated competitions are the crossfit championships, IFBB circuit bodybuilding competitions, and Hyrox-style functional formats. Instructors and well-known figures from the Italian and international fitness world alternate on stage, along with industry creators and influencers.
RiminiWellness Off: wellness goes into the city
The experience doesn't end within the exhibition halls: with RiminiWellness Off, the event's energy spills out onto the Riviera, with beach events, group runs, outdoor classes, and sunset gatherings. It is this widespread dimension, between the fair and the city, that makes the Rimini event unique in the European wellness landscape.
A benchmark for the sector
Founded in 2006, RiminiWellness has become the reference showcase for the fitness and wellness sector in Italy over the years, attended by gyms, equipment manufacturers, medical centers, and wellness operators, as well as the general public. Its location in Rimini, a city symbolic of seaside tourism and the active lifestyle of the Adriatic coast, reinforces its identity.
RiminiWellness — edition 2026
The 20th edition of RiminiWellness, scheduled from May 28-31, 2026, celebrated an important milestone with the theme 'Go Through': a physical, mental, and emotional journey through the exhibition halls and the city of Rimini. The event reaffirmed its position as a European benchmark for fitness, sport, and wellness, structured into six thematic sectors and featuring thousands of hours of live activities.
Organized by Italian Exhibition Group, this edition brought together exhibitors, gyms, equipment manufacturers, medical centers, and wellness operators, along with a vast audience of enthusiasts. The RiminiWellness Off format was also confirmed, bringing events, group runs, and outdoor classes along the Romagna Riviera.
