In this guide
Ten exhibitions make up the Larisa calendar here, one per sector, running from 200 to 500 exhibitors apiece — a compact but unusually broad spread for a single city.
For a buyer, that breadth is the point. You can walk a healthcare floor on one visit and a construction floor on another, and compare vendors in categories that rarely share a hall. The trade-off is that no single show covers everything, so a procurement plan built around one date will miss most of the calendar.
This guide takes a sourcing lens: which shows suit which buying briefs, how the venues and scale compare, and where international visitors tend to lose time. Only three of the ten carry future dates in the data here — Larisa Healthcare Expo, Larisa Food & Beverage Fair and Larisa Logistics Expo. The rest are supplied as past editions, so treat them as a record of what ran, not as a promise of 2027 dates.
Which Sectors Dominate the Larisa Exhibition Calendar
No single industry dominates. The ten events split into ten separate sectors, each with one show, and exhibitor counts sit between 200 and 500. That flat structure is unusual and useful: it tells a buyer that Larisa’s calendar is built for breadth rather than depth in any one field.
The middle of the range — 300 to 450 exhibitors — covers healthcare, food and beverage, logistics, automotive, agriculture, construction and technology. The two smallest floors, renewable energy and fashion and textiles, sit at 200 each. The largest single event, general trade at 500, is also the broadest in scope.
For procurement, that means sector choice is the first decision, not date choice. A buyer with a narrow brief gets one relevant show; a buyer with a mixed brief gets a shortlist of two or three.
- Broadest brief: general trade, at 500 exhibitors
- Deepest single-sector floors: automotive (450) and agriculture (400)
- Leanest floors: renewable energy and fashion and textiles, 200 each
Scale is not quality, though. A 200-exhibitor floor can still contain the right supplier for you.
The Larisa Exhibitions, Compared by Sector
1. Larisa Healthcare Expo
Healthcare suppliers, 300 exhibitors, January 2027
- Supplied dates: January 10-12, 2027
- Industry: Healthcare
- Exhibitors: 300+
- Official website
Healthcare buying rewards patience and paperwork, and a 300-exhibitor floor gives you enough density to compare device, pharma and consumable suppliers in one pass. Build a shortlist before you travel: list the product categories you actually source, then map each to the exhibitors named in the show’s material. Bring specification sheets and ask for lead times and minimum order quantities in writing. Because January falls early in the year, this is a sensible moment to line up annual supply contracts.
Best for: Clinical procurement and medtech buyers
2. Larisa Food & Beverage Fair
Food and drink sourcing, 250 exhibitors, March 2027
- Supplied dates: March 5-7, 2027
- Industry: Food & Beverage
- Exhibitors: 250+
- Official website
Food and beverage floors live or die on samples, so arrive with a tasting protocol and a scoring sheet rather than a tote bag. With 250 exhibitors, a disciplined buyer can cover the hall in two days and still hold second meetings. Ask about shelf life, cold-chain handling and packaging formats — the details that decide whether a listing survives its first quarter. March timing suits buyers planning summer ranges.
Best for: Retail and foodservice buyers
3. Larisa Logistics Expo
Freight and warehousing vendors, November 2026
- Supplied dates: November 15-17, 2026
- Industry: Logistics
- Exhibitors: 250+
- Official website
Logistics procurement is a rates-and-reliability conversation, and a 250-exhibitor show gives you several carriers and forwarders to benchmark against each other. Come with lane data: the routes you ship, volumes, and the service levels you need. Compare quotes on the same assumed volumes so the numbers mean something. November is late enough in the year that vendors may be thinking about next year’s capacity.
Best for: Logistics and distribution managers
4. Larisa International Trade Fair
Broad general trade, the 500-exhibitor ceiling
- Supplied past edition: September 10-12, 2026
- Industry: General Trade
- Exhibitors: 500+
- Official website
This is the widest floor in the data, at 500 exhibitors, and the one most likely to suit a buyer sourcing across several categories at once. The risk is diffusion: without a written priority list you will wander. Assign each category a time budget and a go/no-go threshold before you enter. The supplied edition is a past one, so confirm whether a future edition exists before planning anything around it.
Best for: Multi-category buyers and distributors
5. Larisa Automotive Expo
Vehicle and parts sourcing, 450 exhibitors
- Supplied past edition: August 5-7, 2026
- Industry: Automotive
- Exhibitors: 450+
- Official website
Automotive buying spans vehicles, components and workshop equipment, and 450 exhibitors gives room for all three. Decide in advance whether you are there for fleet replacement, parts supply or service equipment — the conversations differ sharply. Ask about warranty terms, spare-part availability and delivery windows. The record here is a past edition; treat any future timing as something to check rather than assume.
Best for: Fleet and aftermarket buyers
6. Larisa Agricultural Expo
Farm machinery and inputs, 400 exhibitors
- Supplied past edition: April 10-12, 2026
- Industry: Agriculture
- Exhibitors: 400+
- Official website
Agricultural procurement is seasonal and capital-heavy, so a 400-exhibitor floor is a chance to compare machinery, inputs and services side by side. Bring your operating constraints: acreage, soil, existing equipment. Financing and servicing arrangements often matter more than sticker price. The edition supplied here has already taken place, so verify current arrangements before committing budget.
Best for: Agricultural input and equipment buyers
7. Larisa Construction Fair
Plant, materials and tools, 350 exhibitors
- Supplied past edition: September 15-17, 2026
- Industry: Construction
- Exhibitors: 350+
- Official website
Construction buying is project-driven, and 350 exhibitors covers plant, materials and tools. Come with a live project list and a bill of quantities; general browsing rarely converts into a good deal. Ask about hire versus purchase, servicing and parts turnaround. Because the supplied edition is past, treat the sector fit as the useful signal and confirm dates separately.
Best for: Contractors and project buyers
8. Larisa Tech Expo
Enterprise technology vendors, 300 exhibitors
- Supplied past edition: June 20-22, 2026
- Industry: Technology
- Exhibitors: 300+
- Official website
Technology procurement moves fast enough that a 300-exhibitor show is best used for comparison, not discovery. Arrive with your current stack and a list of gaps. Ask about integration, licensing models and exit terms — the clauses that decide total cost over three years. The record here is a past edition, so the sector match is the takeaway rather than a fixed date.
Best for: IT and digital procurement leads
9. Larisa Renewable Energy Expo
Clean energy systems, smallest floor at 200
- Supplied past edition: October 10-12, 2026
- Industry: Renewable Energy
- Exhibitors: 200+
- Official website
At 200 exhibitors this is the smallest floor in the data, which makes it quicker to work but thinner on alternatives. Use it to compare system types and service models rather than to run a full tender. Ask about warranties, output guarantees and maintenance contracts. The supplied edition is past; check whether the sector returns before budgeting travel.
Best for: Energy and sustainability buyers
10. Larisa Fashion & Textile Expo
Apparel and fabric sourcing, 200 exhibitors
- Supplied past edition: May 15-17, 2026
- Industry: Fashion & Textiles
- Exhibitors: 200+
- Official website
Textile sourcing depends on touch, sample quality and minimum order quantities, and 200 exhibitors is enough to compare a focused range. Bring fabric specs and target price points. Ask about sampling lead times and production capacity. As with several others here, the supplied edition is a past one, so the practical value is in knowing the sector is represented at this scale.
Best for: Fashion retail and textile buyers
Event details reflect supplied records and have not been independently verified for this guide. Always confirm on the official event website before booking travel or stand space.
Comparing the Larisa Venues and What the Data Tells You
The venue field is blank across all ten records, which is a practical fact rather than a gap to fill in with guesswork. It means you cannot compare halls, travel between sites or plan a walking route from this data alone.
What you can compare is scale and sector. Use the table below as a starting shortlist, then resolve locations before you book anything.
| Event | Exhibitors | Buyer use |
|---|---|---|
| International Trade Fair | 500 | Multi-category sweep |
| Automotive Expo | 450 | Fleet and parts |
| Agricultural Expo | 400 | Machinery and inputs |
| Construction Fair | 350 | Project purchasing |
| Healthcare, Tech, Logistics | 300 each | Specialist comparison |
| Food & Beverage | 250 | Tasting and listing |
| Renewable Energy, Fashion | 200 each | Focused reviewing |
Once venues are known, group any shows you plan to attend by location and check whether the dates overlap. Nothing in the data here suggests they do.
Advice for International Visitors to Larisa
Three of the ten events carry future dates: healthcare in January 2027, food and beverage in March 2027, and logistics in November 2026. If you are travelling from abroad, those are the three to weigh first, because the other seven are supplied as past editions.
Plan around uncertainty. Confirm the practical arrangements — venue, opening hours, badge process — through the show’s own channels before committing to flights. This data does not verify them.
- Anchor on one show. Pick the single event closest to your buying brief and build the trip around it.
- Prepare a one-page supplier brief. Product, volumes, standards, delivery terms. It saves repeated explanations.
- Budget meeting time, not floor time. Second conversations matter more than first impressions.
- Leave room for a follow-up day. Decisions made in a hall rarely survive contact with a spreadsheet.
Anyone combining events should check dates carefully; overlaps are not established here.
Common Mistakes Buyers Make at Larisa Trade Shows
The most frequent error is treating a past edition as a scheduled future one. Seven of the ten shows here are recorded as past. That does not mean they will not run again — it means you should not assume they will.
The second is mistaking scale for relevance. A 500-exhibitor general trade floor can bury a buyer who needed one specialist supplier among 200. Match the show to the brief, not to the headline count.
The third is arriving without numbers. Vendors respond differently to a buyer who knows volumes and specifications. Vague interest gets vague answers.
Finally, do not plan a multi-show itinerary on the assumption that dates and locations fit together. The venue field is empty in every record, so grouping shows into one trip requires checking that yourself.
- Reading past dates as future commitments
- Choosing the biggest show over the most relevant one
- No written supplier brief
- Assuming venues are shared or close together
Fix these four and the rest of the planning gets much easier.
Frequently Asked Questions About Larisa Trade Shows
How many trade shows and exhibitions take place in Larisa?
The records here list ten events, each in a different sector: healthcare, food and beverage, logistics, general trade, automotive, agriculture, construction, technology, renewable energy, and fashion and textiles. Exhibitor counts range from 200 to 500. This is a snapshot of the records supplied, not a claim about every event the city hosts.
Which Larisa shows have future dates listed?
Three records carry future dates: Larisa Healthcare Expo on January 10-12, 2027, Larisa Food & Beverage Fair on March 5-7, 2027, and Larisa Logistics Expo on November 15-17, 2026. The other seven are recorded as past editions, with no recurrence stated. Check with each show's own channels before booking travel.
Which Larisa exhibition is best for buyers comparing many vendors?
The general trade event lists 500 exhibitors, the highest count in the records, followed by automotive at 450 and agriculture at 400. Larger floors give more alternatives, but a specialist buyer may find a 200-exhibitor show more efficient. Match the show to your sourcing brief rather than to the exhibitor total alone.
Do the Larisa shows share a venue, and can I visit several in one trip?
The venue field is empty in all ten records, so no shared or separate locations can be established from this data. Dates also vary across months and years. Any combined itinerary depends on facts not present here. Confirm venues and dates directly before planning travel or booking accommodation.
Start with your buying brief, not the calendar. Name the product categories you source, then match them against the ten sectors here and shortlist no more than two shows. Confirm venues and current dates through each show’s own channels. For 2027 planning, the healthcare, food and beverage and logistics events are the ones with future dates listed.
