A rich selection of furniture and home furnishing solutions

This year the focus is on sustainability, renewable building materials, energy-efficient construction systems and smart housing solutions. Visitors will have the opportunity to explore a wide range of products from renowned manufacturers covering all aspects of home furnishing, from furniture to energy-efficient appliances.

Under a single roof, you will be able to find a complete offer for equipping every area of your home: from living rooms and bedrooms to kitchens, bathrooms, and even office spaces. Exhibitors will showcase their latest collections that combine outstanding aesthetics with functionality, with a special emphasis on innovative design and high-quality craftsmanship, thus making Ambienta one of the most important furniture industry events in the region.

Leading conferences and a professional programme

This year’s Ambienta features an exceptionally rich professional programme, where leading experts will share their knowledge and experience, offering practical solutions and real-world examples. Among the many lectures and panel discussions, we wish to highlight two conferences: "Construction and Investments 2025" and "I Want a Lift!".

The conference “Construction and Investments 2025“ organized by Zagreb Fair will gather key stakeholders from the construction sector, opening a dialogue about the future of the industry. Discussions will focus on sustainable and responsible building practices, including economic conditions, technological innovations and workforce employment challenges.

The conference "I Want a Lift!" jointly organized by Zgradonačelnik and Zagreb Fair is intended for co-owners, building managers, elevator installation and maintenance companies, designers and financial institutions, providing them with insights into the solutions and challenges related to elevator installation and maintenance at a time when the government has secured nine million euros for co-financing over the next three years.
 
Innovations and special humanitarian projects

For the first time at Ambienta #StanZaSutra will be showcased - an apartment fully furnished with sustainable furniture, appliances and décor.

Under the auspices of the City of Zagreb and in cooperation with the main partner JYSK, along with partners: Aid Furniture, Chromos Paints and Varnishes, Gorenje, Feal, Rockwool and SG Forma, Zagreb Fair presents the project #StanzaSutra - a sustainable apartment of the future.

It is a specially designed exhibition space located in pavilion 8A of the Ambienta Fair, showcasing how a home can be at the same time environmentally friendly, functional, affordable and aesthetically appealing. The project goes a step further - after the fair, all the furniture and equipment from the apartment will be donated to a housing community for young people within the Semi-Independent Living Programme, specifically to one of the apartments provided by the City of Zagreb for use by SOS Children’s Villages Croatia. Bringing together sustainability and social solidarity makes this project unique and invites us all to reflect on a future where sharing becomes the foundation of progress.

An entire pavilion of the fair will be dedicated to innovations in sustainable construction, ranging from environmentally friendly materials to energy-efficient systems. Addressing the challenges of modern life, low-energy prefabricated buildings will also be featured. Exhibitors will equip such homes with solar power plants and heat pumps, thus presenting sustainable housing solutions that utilize renewable energy sources.

Within the scope of the exhibition zone dedicated to the hotel and restaurant equipment, exclusive events are being prepared in collaboration with the Croatian Chefs Association, transforming Zagreb Fair into a hub of high-end gastronomy. A highlight of the programme is the prestigious international competition Bocuse d'Or/WorldChefs, and visitors will have the opportunity to enjoy a variety of tastings.

This year we are continuing with the project Ambienta & Museums, launched in 2024, with our partners Klovićevi Dvori Gallery, the Museum of Illusions, the Museum of Laughter and the Museum of Travel. We are proud to present the world premiere of the first-ever Museum of Travel. Embark on the journey from pavilion 8A.

All visitors who purchase a ticket will be eligible for the prize draw featuring exciting prizes.
