The Piscine Global 2024 edition closed on a more than positive note! The event once again confirmed its status as a leading global event for the swimming pool and well-being sector, with more than 24,000 visitors.
The international dimension of the show strengthened in 2024
The organizers of the show are delighted to see an increase in international attendance, both worldwide and in Europe. The show has once again established itself as the essential gathering of swimming pool and wellness professionals, invested in the future of their sector. A very rich, dynamic program that perfectly meets the challenges of the profession, with a plethora of innovations and solutions for the construction, but also the renovation of swimming pools, completely won over visitors.
