A ceremonial event, accompanied by a retrospective exhibition, marked 80 years of the existence of the Belgrade Fair. The open-air exhibition of photographs and documents recalled everything from the beginning of construction of the first pavilions, in 1937, to the present day.
“Eighty years of the Belgrade Fair, established on this very day, is a great anniversary. This is an exceptional tradition of which we are proud, but which also obliges us. Behind us are positive and encouraging results, and all of that is what makes us the fair institution with the best prospects in this part of Europe,” said Danka Selić, general director of the Fair.
Nemanja Berić, president of the Assembly of the City Municipality of Savski Venac, home of the Belgrade Fair, congratulated the hosts on their great jubilee. “Considering that the Belgrade Fair is a place that, as the hosts say, has been seen by the whole world, we believe that the Fair will continue to be that in the future,” said Berić.
