The 48th edition of SIGEP World is scheduled for January 23-27, 2027, at the Rimini Exhibition Center, according to ANSA. The Italian Exhibition Group and the ICE agency presented the event in Tokyo during a networking event for the ice cream, pastry, chocolate, coffee, baking, pizza and professional catering technology sectors. That makes the dates relevant if you work in those industries or plan a food-focused trip to Italy in late January.
Check access before you book
The source describes SIGEP World as a trade fair, not a consumer festival. It does not say whether the general public can enter on all days. Check the official SIGEP World site for ticket categories, opening days and visitor rules. Do not buy from an unofficial reseller. If you are a leisure traveler, confirm that your ticket type exists before you commit to flights or hotels.
What the dates mean for a trip
If access is open to you, Rimini is the anchor. The exhibition center is the venue named by ANSA. The source does not list public transport details, shuttle services or hotel deals, so plan those separately. Late January is outside the Adriatic beach season, but the source does not give weather or crowd data. Check train connections in advance if you are combining the fair with other Italian cities. The event runs for five days, so you can pick one or two days rather than committing to the full run.
For now, the main takeaway is simple. The dates are set for January 23-27, 2027, at Rimini Exhibition Center. Treat it as a trade event until you see public access confirmed.
