Alimentaria & Hostelco: why it matters
Alimentaria & Hostelco is Spain’s biggest food, beverage and hospitality fair — 3,000+ exhibitors and 100,000+ professionals. Show-cooking areas, tasting bars and brand theatres call for stands that handle water, gas, extraction and crowds without losing design impact.
Exhibiting at Fira Barcelona Gran Vía: what to know
Fira Barcelona Gran Vía has 8 halls and hosts Spain’s most international fairs. Height limits and rigging rules vary by hall; accreditations and build slots are strict at flagship events, where demand for contractors peaks months ahead. We manage every official Fira service and deadline for you.
Alimentaria & Hostelco: show-cooking decides
Alimentaria organises Gran Vía into salons — Intervin (wine), Intercarn (meat), Restaurama (foodservice), Expoconser, Lácteos, plus Hostelco’s equipment halls — and buyers walk their salon end to end. The defining feature is fire: more working kitchens per square kilometre than anywhere in Spain, which means gas, extraction, fire-rated surfaces and Fira approvals that must be filed early.
The hierarchy of attention: aroma first, chef activity second, brand third. Stands that cook draw standing crowds at 11:30 sharp; stands that only display photograph well and convert little. Plan your kitchen as theatre — counter seating facing the action, product story told between dishes.
Alimentaria budgets (biennial — next March 2028)
- 16 m² producer: €5,000–9,500 — tasting counter, fridge, branded back wall.
- 36–64 m² with kitchen: €20,000–45,000 — show-cooking line with extraction, cold room, meeting table.
- D.O./group pavilion 100 m²+: €50,000–140,000 — co-producer modules, central bar, chef stage.
With 3,000+ exhibitors and 100,000+ professionals in recent editions, Alimentaria is Spain’s biggest food build — and the 50th-anniversary cycle has pushed expectations up another notch.
Can you install gas and extraction for show-cooking?
