Piscina Barcelona 2027 – Spain

What to expect

Piscina Barcelona 2027 is an international professional trade fair focused on swimming pools, wellness, spas, outdoor living, aquatic facilities, and related technologies and services. Organized by Fira de Barcelona in collaboration with ASOFAP, the Spanish association representing the swimming-pool industry, the event is designed as a meeting point for manufacturers, distributors, installers, architects, landscape professionals, hotel and tourism operators, facility managers, designers, retailers, and other decision-makers.

The event combines a large-scale exhibition with professional conferences, product presentations, innovation showcases, networking opportunities, demonstrations, and experiential installations. Its scope extends beyond residential swimming pools to public and commercial aquatic facilities, wellness centres, hotels, campsites, sports facilities, water parks, landscaping, and outdoor environments.

The 2027 edition is being developed with a stronger emphasis on professional visitor quality and international business. Organizers expect more than 450 exhibitors from over 30 countries and more than 20,000 professional visitors. Around 70% of exhibiting companies and 60% of visitors are expected to come from outside Spain, highlighting the show’s international orientation.

Visitors can expect to discover pool construction systems, water-treatment technologies, pumps and filtration equipment, heating and climate-control solutions, automation, connected systems, pool finishes, safety products, spas, wellness equipment, outdoor furniture, landscaping solutions, and other technologies designed for aquatic and outdoor environments.

Piscina Barcelona 2027 will take place from 15–18 November 2027 at the Gran Via venue of Fira de Barcelona in Barcelona, Spain. The official event website confirms the dates and location.

The show is planned as a four-day professional industry event, with the exhibition, conferences, demonstrations, networking activities, and specialist programmes operating throughout the event period.

Venue & exhibition site

The venue is Fira de Barcelona’s Gran Via exhibition centre, one of Barcelona’s largest and most modern exhibition facilities. The site has approximately 240,000 square metres of gross exhibition area and is equipped with extensive transport connections, restaurants, parking, meeting facilities, and modern exhibition infrastructure.

Piscina Barcelona is planned to occupy more than 46,000 square metres across Halls 1 and 2. The 2027 exhibition is being designed around a strong commercial offer covering pools, wellness, outdoor living, and related professional services.

Venue: Fira de Barcelona – Gran Via

Address: Av. Joan Carles I, 64, 08908 L’Hospitalet de Llobregat, Barcelona, Spain

Main exhibition halls: Halls 1 and 2

Organizer: Fira de Barcelona, in collaboration with ASOFAP

The venue’s scale makes it possible to combine traditional exhibition stands with larger demonstration and showroom concepts. The 2027 plan continues the event’s development as a professional marketplace rather than simply a conventional product exhibition.

Full event programme

The complete 2027 activity programme has not yet been published in its final form. The official Piscina Barcelona website is already maintaining programme and speaker sections, but much of the detailed content currently visible relates to the previous edition and will be updated as the new programme is confirmed.

The programme is expected to build around several established components of the show.

Exhibition: The main exhibition will present products and technologies for pools, aquatic facilities, wellness, spas, outdoor environments, landscaping, and related professional applications.

Innovation: Innovation-focused content highlights new products and technologies addressing sustainability, connectivity, digitalization, efficiency, and improved user experiences.

Outdoor and wellness experiences: The show has previously created large experiential environments where visitors can see outdoor products, water features, wellness equipment, furniture, landscaping, and spa solutions operating together in realistic settings.

Professional conferences: Industry experts, associations, architects, designers, manufacturers, hotel professionals, and other specialists contribute to discussions about market trends, technology, sustainability, construction, wellness, and business.

International business: International meetings and business programmes connect exhibitors with buyers, specifiers, architects, hotel groups, tourism professionals, and distributors.

Product presentations: Exhibitors can use the event as a platform to introduce new equipment, technologies, materials, services, and solutions.

The final programme should be checked through the official programme page as additional sessions and speakers are announced.

Key speakers & keynote speakers

The final 2027 speaker programme has not yet been fully announced. The official speakers section already demonstrates the broad professional profile associated with Piscina Barcelona, including architects, landscape professionals, hotel executives, wellness specialists, pool-industry representatives, technology companies, and international sector organizations.

Names appearing in the current official speaker database include professionals such as Patricia Abreu of the Association of Pool Professionals of Mexico, Charles Anderson of RMIT, Alessia Anguzza of HCP Arquitectos, Gina Atwood of Tubs Parts, Paul Aychouh of Kempinski, Carlos Barrau of Hotel Investment Partners, and Yago Cavaller Galí of Batlle i Roig. However, visitors should not assume that every name currently shown on the website represents the final 2027 programme because the online programme is still being updated.

The event’s Organising Committee for the new edition is chaired by Carles Franquesa, President of Fluidra for Southern Europe, Australia and New Zealand, while Pedro Arrébola, President of ASOFAP and General Manager of Renolit Ibérica’s Pool Division, serves as vice-chair. The committee also includes representatives from leading industry companies and professional organizations.

Conference sessions & tracks

The professional programme is expected to focus on the issues shaping the future of aquatic facilities, wellness environments, and outdoor spaces.

Sustainability: Water conservation, energy efficiency, responsible chemical use, sustainable materials, and environmentally responsible pool design remain major industry themes.

Digitalization and connectivity: Smart pool controls, connected equipment, remote monitoring, automation, data, and digital maintenance solutions are becoming increasingly important.

Pool construction: New construction systems, prefabricated pools, waterproofing, finishes, filtration, circulation, and installation technologies form an important part of the professional discussion.

Wellness and spa: The programme addresses wellness facilities, spas, aquatic therapies, hospitality environments, health-oriented experiences, and the design of spaces focused on wellbeing.

Outdoor living: Landscaping, furniture, outdoor kitchens, lighting, shading, paving, irrigation, and outdoor entertainment solutions connect pool projects with broader outdoor design.

Hospitality and tourism: Hotels, resorts, campsites, wellness destinations, and tourism businesses are important users of pool and outdoor technologies.

Public aquatic facilities: Public pools, sports facilities, water parks, and municipal installations create a separate set of requirements around accessibility, energy consumption, safety, maintenance, and long-term operation.

The 2027 organizing committee has also established working groups involving more than 50 experts to strengthen the show’s knowledge programme and identify trends and strategic priorities for the sector.

Session times & schedule

The detailed 2027 daily conference timetable has not yet been published in full. The official programme platform is designed to allow visitors to filter sessions by day, format, theme, location, and time once the programme is populated.

A typical professional visit can be organized around the following priorities:

• Start with the exhibition floor and identify priority exhibitors.
• Visit product and innovation areas.
• Attend relevant technical or business sessions.
• Explore wellness and outdoor demonstration environments.
• Arrange meetings with manufacturers, distributors, or service providers.
• Leave sufficient time for networking and follow-up discussions.

The official Piscina Barcelona app is designed to provide the event schedule, access information, exhibitor details, products, brands, and networking tools. Registered users can also connect their LinkedIn information and communicate with other participants through the event networking service.

Ticket types & registration

Piscina Barcelona is primarily a professional trade fair, and registration is focused on business visitors and industry professionals. The organizer has not yet published a final 2027 visitor ticket price list.

For this reason, no unsupported 2027 admission price is being presented as confirmed. Previous editions promoted professional accreditation and discounts through the official registration system, while certain professional groups and ASOFAP members could receive complimentary access under specific conditions.

Professional visitor registration: Intended for professionals working in or connected with pools, wellness, construction, hospitality, landscaping, sports facilities, tourism, distribution, and related industries.

Exhibitor passes: Companies exhibiting at the show receive access arrangements associated with their participation package.

Hosted Buyer access: Previous editions included a Hosted Buyer programme offering selected international and professional buyers preferential access, networking opportunities, and a free admission pass. Participation was subject to professional profile, investment projects, geographic criteria, available places, and organizer approval.

Previous-edition pricing: A verified public 2025 visitor admission price is not currently available from the official sources reviewed, so a fabricated historical dollar amount would be misleading. Visitors should use the official registration page when 2027 accreditation opens.

Registration deadlines

No general 2027 visitor registration deadline has been announced.

For exhibitors, however, the official participation page currently identifies special booking periods. The rebooking offer for previous exhibitors is listed through 30 April 2026, while the Early Bird period for new exhibitors runs through 31 December 2026. These are exhibitor participation deadlines rather than visitor-ticket deadlines.

The show is already experiencing strong exhibitor demand. The organizer reported that 240 exhibitors from 27 countries had confirmed participation and that 75% of planned exhibition space had already been reserved during the early preparation stage.

Professional visitors should register as soon as the official 2027 accreditation system becomes available, particularly if they need access to hosted-buyer programmes, business meetings, conferences, or other activities requiring advance registration.

Exhibitor list & major companies

The 2027 exhibitor list is still developing, but the organizer has already confirmed participation from 240 exhibitors representing 27 countries, with the final target expected to exceed 450 exhibitors from more than 30 countries.

The event’s organizing committee and current exhibition information identify numerous leading companies and brands across the sector.

Major industry names include: Fluidra, Aiper, BWT, DTP, ESPA, Hayward, Grupo QP, Irripiscine, NAOS, Piscinas Condal, Rosa Gres, Renolit, SCP, Action Waterscapes, and other international manufacturers and suppliers.

Previous editions also featured companies including Fairland, Aquavia Spa, Emaux, Productos QP, Eurospas, CGT Alkor, Fix a Leak, Aiswater, Espa, Grupo Baeza, Ercros, Basecrete, Gresmanc, Iber Coverpool, Superior Wellness, Hisom, K7 Rekker, Lifestylegarden, Lightpro, and Visendum.

The official exhibitor catalogue provides searchable information by company, brand, product, sector, country, and stand location. The previous catalogue contained more than 650 brands and more than 1,500 listed novelties.

Exhibition halls & floor plan

Piscina Barcelona 2027 is planned across Halls 1 and 2 of Fira de Barcelona’s Gran Via venue, covering more than 46,000 square metres gross.

The exact 2027 floor plan and final stand allocation are still subject to exhibitor confirmations and organizer updates.

The exhibition is expected to organize products and companies around several broad areas:

• Pool construction and prefabricated pool systems
• Water treatment, pumps, and filtration
• Pool heating and climate control
• Pool finishes, tiles, coatings, and materials
• Automation and connected technologies
• Pool cleaning and maintenance
• Safety and accessibility
• Wellness, spas, and aquatic treatments
• Outdoor furniture and living
• Landscaping and garden solutions
• Lighting and irrigation
• Hospitality and tourism applications
• Professional services and software

The large-scale layout enables manufacturers to demonstrate equipment and create realistic installations rather than relying exclusively on conventional booth displays.

Networking & business meetings

Business networking is one of the central purposes of Piscina Barcelona. The show attracts manufacturers and suppliers alongside installers, distributors, architects, landscape designers, hotel managers, tourism professionals, facility operators, and purchasing decision-makers.

The 2027 strategy places particular emphasis on visitor quality and high-value business opportunities. Organizers are targeting professional profiles with purchasing, specification, recommendation, and decision-making responsibilities.

Previous Hosted Buyer programmes provided selected buyers with personalized meeting agendas, access to networking areas and VIP spaces, business-to-business meetings, and exclusive networking activities.

The official event app also supports networking by allowing registered participants to discover other attendees, connect through LinkedIn, and communicate with other event participants.

For exhibitors, the event provides an opportunity to meet distributors, installers, project developers, architects, hotel groups, public-facility operators, and international buyers in one location.

Piscina Barcelona covers a particularly broad part of the aquatic and outdoor-living value chain.

Swimming pools: Residential pools, public pools, commercial pools, prefabricated pools, construction systems, finishes, and installation solutions.

Water treatment: Filtration, pumps, disinfection, chemical management, water-quality monitoring, and purification.

Pool technology: Automation, connected controls, digital monitoring, intelligent equipment, and energy-efficient systems.

Event rules & visitor information

Visitors should register through the official event system and bring their valid admission credential when attending. Professional accreditation may require business or professional information.

The show is primarily business-focused, so visitors should be prepared for a professional exhibition environment. Certain conferences, demonstrations, networking activities, or special programmes may require advance registration or have limited capacity.

Visitors should also use the official event app and exhibitor catalogue to plan their route. The app provides access to exhibitor information, products, brands, stand locations, schedules, and networking functions.

The organizer may update access procedures, activity locations, conference schedules, and participation requirements as preparations progress. Visitors should therefore check the official website shortly before travelling.

Previous year’s highlights

The previous edition established Piscina Barcelona as a major European meeting point for the pool, wellness, and outdoor-living industries. It attracted more than 17,000 professional visitors and 428 exhibitors from 30 countries, representing a 20% increase in professional attendance compared with the previous edition.

The exhibition covered approximately 45,000 square metres and included more than 400 companies. Around 68% of participating companies were international, demonstrating the event’s strong global character.

More than 700 brands were represented, with companies presenting solutions for pool construction, prefabricated pools, water treatment, heating, filtration, wellness, spas, outdoor environments, landscaping, safety, and connected technologies.

One of the major attractions was the Outdoor & Wellness Experience, a large showroom environment that recreated outdoor and wellness spaces using landscaping, furniture, water areas, spa facilities, treatment cabins, sauna facilities, and other products.

The Innovation Zone presented products and technologies focused on sustainability and digitalization, helping visitors identify solutions addressing water consumption, energy efficiency, connectivity, and smarter facility management.

The previous programme also included international business activities, regional and sector-focused sessions, professional meetings, landscape content, wellness programming, and networking opportunities. These elements provide a foundation for the expanded professional strategy being developed for the next edition.

Official registration & tickets

The official Piscina Barcelona website is the primary source for 2027 registration, exhibitor information, programme updates, speaker announcements, venue information, and visitor accreditation.

Official website: Piscina Barcelona (https://www.piscinabarcelona.es/)

Official programme: Programme & Speakers (https://www.piscinabarcelona.es/program/)

Exhibitor participation: Book exhibition space (https://www.piscinabarcelona.es/exhibit/forms-of-participation/)

Official event app: Piscina Barcelona App (https://www.piscinabarcelona.es/the-event/app/)

The 2027 visitor ticket price has not yet been published in the official sources reviewed. Previous editions used professional accreditation and promotional registration mechanisms, including discounts and complimentary access for qualifying professional groups. It is therefore better to wait for the official 2027 registration portal than to publish an unverified ticket price.
