The Italian Pavilion includes the Palazzo Italy, four buildings on the Cardo and the Lake Arena, a total of 14,000 square meters.
Palazzo Italy will be the beating heart of the Italian Pavilion: a living space, created to host events on the ground floor exhibition space and representation at the higher levels. The building will house inside institutional spaces of the Italian Government and the excellence of Made in Italy with a VIP restaurant on the fourth floor and roof terrace. Building one of the few to remain even after the Expo and who wish to apply to be a center of innovation and progress.
The form was born to be a nursery of New Energies for telling this with a great momentum into the future.
We will have an exhibition of Italian where they will be exhibited the four so-called Powers Italian:
The Know-How with 21 characters who tell stories of Italian opera capable of large companies in the fields of art and craftsmanship.
The Power of Beauty with 21 views and 21 architectural beauty to tell the charm of Italy.

The Italian is the fourth power of the Future, which is represented by a nursery with 21 plants representing the regions of Italy.
L’Albero della Vita – The tree of the life
It is the symbol of the Italian Pavilion, an icon of femininity and its power to generate and to unite. A unique structure of wood and steel 37 meters high well visible in the center of Lake Arena, created by designer Marco Balich.
Inside the Palace Italy will also see the Italian fruit and vegetable markets through an interactive exhibition.
Another big attraction will be the original space by the Italian Blind Union in which to experience the tragic beauty of blindness through an experience totally in the dark in a long space of 100 meters.
Made in Italy and its values in architectural design
Il Padiglione Italia vuole essere un luogo vivo, un punto di incontro in cui poter comunicare il Made in Italy in tutte le sue forme.
Proprio per questo anche gli elementi costruttivi dovevano necessariamente richiamare questi valori.
Grande spazio quindi alle trasparenze del vetro e dei cristalli, un simbolo di dialogo e apertura verso il mondo.
Poi l’Energia, a simboleggiare l’energia dell’Italia ma anche il rispetto dell’ambiente. Palazzo Italia è infatti un edificio a impatto quasi zero grazie all’utilizzo di vetro fotovoltaico e alle proprietà fotocatalitiche del cemento utilizzato per l’involucro esterno, un cemento in grado di assorbire alcuni inquinanti presenti in atmosfera.
L’Acqua, la Natura e la Tecnologia sono gli altri elementi su cui ruota l’intero progetto nato per rappresentare una foresta urbana che racconta la storia delle eccellenze italiane proiettandole in un futuro dinamico e sostenibile.
Buildings of Cardo
Spaces will be dedicated especially to the regions that will exhibit their excellent qualities of agriculture, tourism and food and wine through the wide open spaces of the library and conviviality.
