CERSAIE, the International Exhibition of Ceramic Tile and Bathroom Furnishings, is set to return to Bologna, Italy for its 40th edition from September 25–29th, 2023.
With more than 1.5 million square feet of exhibition space, a robust conference program with Pritzker Prize-winning speakers, and special installations, the show has become a must-attend event for hoteliers and hospitality designers who wish to learn about the latest advancements and trends in Italian tile design and see the latest ceramic products from renowned manufacturers.
While marking significant breakthroughs over the course of four decades, CERSAIE will look toward the future of the Italian tile industry with a focus on new developments and applications of ceramic. Attendees can expect to see thousands of newly released ceramic tile and bathroom furnishing products that offer new design solutions for hospitality spaces.

Ceppo Di Grès collection from Cercom
Many collections can be expected to feature warm and earthy hues inspired by our natural world. For designers who like to make a statement, ready-made ceramic sinks and large-format porcelain panels acting as ceramic wallpaper offer the perfect solution for creating showstopping spaces. This beauty along with the inherent durability, versatility, and naturally hygienic and sustainable qualities of ceramic and porcelain, make these materials ideal surfacing solutions for restaurants, hotels, retail outlets, and more.
This year, commemorating the show’s special anniversary, the exhibition space will feature Route 40, a fascinating journey curated by Davide Vercelli and designed by Dario Curatolo that highlights CERSAIE’s evolution and defining moments, focusing on design, technology, products, and companies that have made history.
In addition, CERSAIE will once again offer extraordinary learning opportunities to design professionals with a wide-ranging lineup of programs including Top Star and Bologna Arte Architettura; keynote lectures held as part of the Building, Dwelling, Thinking program; Press Café conversations; and live tiling demos held in the Tiling Town section.
