CERSAIE 2026, the International Exhibition of Ceramic Tile and Bathroom Furnishings, will be held from 21–25 September 2026 at the Bologna Exhibition Centre in Bologna, Italy. The 43rd edition brings together international companies and professionals working across ceramic surfaces, architectural finishes, bathroom furnishings and related design fields.

CERSAIE is particularly relevant to architects, designers, contractors, retailers, tile professionals and other specialists involved in specifying and applying surface materials. The exhibition covers ceramic floor and wall tiles, porcelain stoneware, mosaics, ventilated façades and other ceramic solutions. Non-ceramic surface categories include marble, natural and reconstituted stone, wood, parquet, laminates, metal, concrete, glass, wallpaper and acoustic panels.

Beyond the exhibition floor, CERSAIE has a substantial educational and cultural programme. Its Building, Dwelling, Thinking programme focuses on architecture and design and features international architects discussing contemporary projects and ideas. The 2026 programme includes keynote sessions featuring architects such as Alejandro Aravena and Annabelle Selldorf.

Other activities include Press Cafés, technical seminars, tile-laying demonstrations at Tiling Town, design awards and events hosted at The Square, a central meeting and discussion area. The 2026 programme also addresses sustainability, BIM, hospitality design, architectural materials and emerging approaches to ceramics and surfaces.
