In short
21 events in 2027, 11 in Greece and 10 abroad, across seven sectors. Exact days are published for 15 of them. The other 6 have an expected month only.
A trade fair brings suppliers, buyers and professionals of one sector into a single venue for a few days.
This guide lists events for 2027 by sector. The professions in the SmartestVoice directory show who works in each sector. Each entry gives the dates, the place, a short description and a link to the organiser's website.
Dates change. Where an organiser has not published exact days, the entry says so. Confirm the dates on the organiser's website before you book travel or a stand.

How the dates were checked
The dates come from two kinds of source.
- Organiser websites. Where the organiser's own site shows the 2027 edition, its dates are used. The check was made on the date shown at the top of the page.
- Trade listings. Where the organiser has not published 2027 days, the entry shows the expected month only, based on the organiser's earlier editions and on trade listings.
Before you book
An expected month is not a confirmed date. Check the organiser's website for the final days, the venue and the ticket terms.

Planning a fair visit without losing calls
A few days away from the business affect calls, bookings and follow up. A short plan limits the loss.
- Choose by customers. Pick the one or two events where your customers or suppliers are. A list with many events costs more days than it returns.
- Wait for confirmed dates. Book travel after the organiser publishes the days, not on an expected month.
- Decide who answers the phone. Name one person for urgent calls and let the voice assistant take the rest.
- Collect details on the stand. Write down the name, number and request of every contact on the same day.
- Follow up within two days. Call or message each contact while the meeting is recent, then review the recorded calls in the dashboard.
