Dronitaly 2027 in Bologna: where to stay

Dronitaly is back in Bologna from 7 to 9 April 2027 for its twelfth international edition, the benchmark meeting point for the Italian civil-drone industry. Over three days, the Bologna Congress Center hosts an exhibition of manufacturers, integrators and UAS service providers, combined with conferences, technical panels and live operational demonstrations. The programme spans the entire value chain, from batteries, electronics and sensors to mission-planning software, U-space/UTM platforms, C-UAS systems and dual-use security and defence applications. The B2G angle is particularly strong, with dedicated training for public bodies and sessions alongside institutions such as ISPRA, CNR and CNI covering environmental monitoring, infrastructure inspection, emergency response, SAR and drone logistics. For attendees, the fair works as a hub for regulatory updates, technical exchange and business development. The event is organised by Mirumir Srl with the backing of BolognaFiere and Water&Energy Srl; the latest edition drew over 2,300 visitors, 62 brands and 166 speakers. Dronitaly 2027 is the natural stop for anyone in the sector looking to anticipate where professional drone operations, regulation and technology are heading in Europe.
