The Mostra Scambio fair is of great importance both to the region and to the country as a whole.

The fair offers a stage for Italian manufacturers, dealers, and restorers and contributes to strengthening Italy's image as a country with a rich automotive history and culture. Italy has a rich and diverse automotive history, dating back to the late 19th century, which has made the country a leading nation in the automotive industry. The automotive industry in Italy began in 1899 with the founding of Fiat (Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino) in Turin. In the early 20th century, other well-known Italian car brands were founded, including Alfa Romeo in 1910, Maserati in 1914, and Ferrari in 1939. Italy is also known for its contributions to motor sports, particularly Formula 1. Ferrari is the oldest team in the history of Formula 1 and has won more world championships than any other team. Italy has also left its mark in the luxury car industry, with brands like Lamborghini and Pagani, known for their high-performance super sports cars. Recently, Italy has also focused on the field of electric mobility, with brands like Fiat and Maserati launching their first fully electric models. This rich tradition is celebrated and honored at events like the Mostra Scambio fair. The Fiera Millenaria of Gonzaga is easily accessible, especially from nearby cities like Reggio Emilia, Verona, and Bologna. For visitors arriving by car, ample parking spaces are available directly at the exhibition hall. In summary, the Mostra Scambio is one of the most important fairs of its kind. It combines history, passion, and expertise and provides a unique platform for lovers of classic cars and motorcycles.
