The entire world is talking about Expo 2015, but many people still don’t know how and where the Universal Exposition will take place.
In short: from May 1st to October 31st, for six months, Milan will host a global showcase where over 140 participating Countries will show the best of their technology offering a concrete answer to a vital need: being able to guarantee healthy, safe and sufficient food for everyone, while respecting the Planet and its equilibrium.
More than mere pavilions, more than a fair: a real platform for the exchange of ideas and shared solutions on the theme of food and innovation for a sustainable future.
Where? The Exposition Site is FieraMilano that, for Expo, will change its name in Rho Fiera Expo Milano 2015.
How can people reach FieraMilano? On the net there are many solutions suggested. Here we sum up the best, easier and quickier ones 😉
By train (suburban and regional services)
– Departure from Stazione Garibaldi to Rho Fiera Milano station. Expected travel-time is about 19 minutes.
– From Milan, the suburban services S5, S6 and S14 (originating in Rogoredo) of the passante service, stop at Rho Fiera Milano.
– Passengers from Monza, Seregno, and Como can take line S11.
– Regional train services from Arona, Domodossola, Varese, and Turin will also stop at Rho Fiera Milano station. Here the complete map.
For visitors arriving in Milan by High-Speed train, access the Exposition Site via a new station at Porta Ovest which offers direct access to the Rho Fiera Milano underground station.
By train (national and international services)
Throughout the six-months of Expo Milano 2015, a total of 67 national and international train services will make a special stop at the Rho Fiera Expo Milano 2015 station: among them, 19 Frecciarossa trains (high-speed trains), 18 Frecciabianca (fast trains), 4 Intercity notte (night-trains) as well as 26 services from and to Switzerland and France. Of the 236 services daily from Milan, bringing a potential 130,000 national and international visitors per day to Expo, 148 will bear the prestigious Frecce Trenitalia livery.
Integrated tickets for getting to the Expo from Milan
Rho Fiera station can be reached using a single ticket that is valid on both the ATM (Milan public transport) and Trenord (railway) networks. Tickets are on sale at ticket machines in underground stations or from ATM Points, as well as from Authorised Expo Milano 2015 Ticket Resellers.

With Io viaggio ovunque in Lombardia (a daily ticket is 16,00 euro) visitors can reach Rho Fiera from any other destination in Lombardy, using any means of public transport.
