This year’s main theme picks up on the emotional, colourful beauty of gardens, balconies and terraces and combines it with a sustainable vision for the green sector. ‘With Giardina, we set new impulses in the garden world every year – a symbiosis of innovation, tradition and the wishes of garden, terrace and balcony owners,’ explains Co-Fair Director Ajas Kulici.

In addition to impressive show gardens, visitors can expect practical solutions, furniture and accessories for outdoor living – in small or large spaces.

An indispensable platform for the green industry
Giardina is not only a highlight for garden lovers, but also an indispensable platform for the green sector in Switzerland. Companies, experts and interested parties have the opportunity here to network, present innovative projects and shape the future of garden design together.
