The Fair is strategically located. Verona city centre is just a few minutes away, as are the railway station and the motorway junction, while Catullo airport is about 10 km from the exhibition site.

We recommend planning your trip in advance, considering also other events in Verona scheduled to take place during Vapitaly (such as the ‘Straverona’ run on 19th and 20th May), which could disrupt local traffic and require diversions.

from the A22 motorway: exit at Verona Nord and then enter the Tangenziale Sud orbital road towards Vicenza and follow signs to Verona, take exit 6 ‘Alpo’, then follow signs for “Fiera”; distance: 7 km

from the A4 motorway: exit at Verona Sud then follow signs for “Fiera”; distance: 1 km

By train:

Verona’s main station is Verona Porta Nuova, from where you can reach Vapitaly in a few minutes by bus or taxi. On Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th May there will also be a free Vapitaly shuttle bus to reach the event from Verona Porta Nuova railway station.

By Taxi:

Radiotaxi switchboard +39 045 532666 (15 lines), manned 24/7 including bank holidays

Verona radiotaxi website: www.radiotaxiverona.it

Flights:

From the airport:

Driving: take the orbital road towards Villafranca, follow signs to the Verona Sud motorway junction and signs for “Fiera”. The trip should take around 10 minutes.
