From 2 to 5 February 2026, in Riva del Garda , an inclusive journey to explore new horizons of accessibility in open - air tourism
Hospitality – The Hospitality Exhibition , the leading international event in Italy for the hotel and restaurant industry, celebrates its 50th edition , confirming its position as a hub of innovation and hospitality culture.
From February 2 to 5, 2026, at the Riva del Garda Exhibition Center, the DI OGNUNO experiential space presents the new project "Orizzon t i Possibili," dedicated to inclusive hospitality and open-air accessibility. After exploring the Reception and Breakfast Room, DI OGNUNO opens up to a sensory journey through open-air tourism.
EVERYONE'S project
DI OGNUNO is the multi-year project of Riva del Garda Fair and Congress for Hospitality, created in collaboration with Village for All – V4A® and Lombardini 22 , which each year explores a different area of hospitality , with the aim of describing and promoting Universal Design as a lever for innovation and progress for companies in the sector.
"With Orizzonti Possibili, we continue Hospitality's commitment to sustainable tourism. DI OGNUNO isn't just a project about accessible hospitality, but an invitation to embrace a broader vision of an inclusive and shared experience, where the language of design, neuroscience, and social values merge to create hospitality that's truly for everyone," says Alessandra Albarelli, General Manager .
of Riva del Garda Fierecongressi.
Theme 2026: Inclusion and Accessibility in Open- Air Tourism
The 2026 edition shines a spotlight on outdoor and open-air tourism —campsites, holiday villages, glamping, chalets, and suites immersed in nature—to illustrate how every need for accessibility, whether permanent, temporary , or situational, can be transformed into freedom thanks to a thoughtful and inclusive project.
Inside Pavilion B2 , the stand explores the key accessibility challenges of open-air spaces and offers concrete, inclusive , and replicable solutions. An immersive and interactive experience that engages visitors and operators, guiding them to look at open-air hospitality from a new perspective.
“Investing in accessible hospitality means investing in quality and competitiveness
of companies - underlines Robert Vi tali , CEO and cofounder of Village for All – V4A® .
"It's not a cost, but a strategic growth path that enhances human capital, expands markets, and strengthens reputation. With Orizzonti Possibili, we want to demonstrate how, even in open-air tourism, inclusion can become a concrete lever for economic development and innovation for the entire sector."
“ Possible Horizons ”: An experiential journey towards inclusion
The concept interprets outdoor travel as a metaphor for life and tourism, where inclusion is not a point of arrival, but an ever-open horizon in constant evolution and transformation. Inside the stand, visitors are invited to embark on an immersive journey that unfolds like a true sensorial and physical map, divided into six stages that blend architecture, neuroscience, and experiential design. The journey begins at Everyone 's Reception , a truly accessible reception area complete with a tactile map, audio description, and automatic transcription, welcoming every visitor with inclusive tools. It continues along Everyone 's Road , a path that allows visitors to physically perceive how materials and surfaces influence the experience and usability of spaces. The Slope Challenge tests the perception of accessibility through two ramps with different inclinations, 5% and 8%, offering a direct comparison between compliance with regulations and actual ease of use for all. The journey continues with the Sensory Garden , an oasis of calm and well - being, designed for low stimulation, where circadian light and natural sounds create a welcoming and regenerating environment. In the Traveler 's Rest , a relaxation space designed to accommodate visible and invisible needs, the senses are stimulated by an interactive olfactory game that adds a further experiential dimension. Finally, the Map of Horizons concludes the journey: a participatory panel where each visitor can leave a message, a reflection, or an idea, symbolically contributing to the construction of a shared horizon, made of listening, inclusion, and collective imagination.
The project also introduces a multisensory wayfinding system, with information totems, visual-tactile maps, and QR codes with voice synthesis, to ensure accessible and intuitive orientation for everyone.
“ Orizzonti Possibili” was born from a multidisciplinary approach that unites universal design , neuroscience and sustainability , drawing inspiration from ESG principles for the reuse of materials , modularity and waste reduction and using light , sound and smells as sensorial activators of a truly inclusive experience .
“With Orizzonti Possibili and DI OGNUNO, we want to demonstrate that inclusion, even in open-air tourism, is a tool for evolution for the sector. At Lombardini22, we have been integrating Universal Design into every project for years, with an approach based on listening and the search for useful and attractive solutions for everyone, exceeding regulatory minimums. We are proud to continue this journey with Hospitality and Village for All – V4A®, promoting transparent accessibility that truly goes #beyondthenorm,” adds Cristian Catania , Head of Universal Design at Lombardini 22 .
“At Hospitality 2026, accessibility will be the common thread running through the entire event, including in the training courses and in-depth discussions dedicated to the multiple needs and cultures of hospitality, offering professionals and operators new insights and concrete tools to build a hospitality that is increasingly aware and attentive to diversity,” concludes Giovanna Voltolini, Exhibition Manager .
