Turin Auto Show

The Turin Auto Show (Italian: Salone dell'automobile di Torino) is an auto show held annually in Turin, Italy. The first official show took place between 21 and 24 April 1900, at the Castle of Valentino, moving to the shuttered FIAT Lingotto factory which has been transformed into a commercial shopping and exhibition center. The Turin Auto Show was cancelled in 2012 and has not been held since.

Today the Bologna Motor Show has taken its place as Italy's international motor show.

Famous quotes containing the word show:

    He could walk, or rather turn about in his little garden, and feel more solid happiness from the flourishing of a cabbage or the growing of a turnip than was ever received from the most ostentatious show the vanity of man could possibly invent. He could delight himself with thinking, “Here will I set such a root, because my Camilla likes it; here, such another, because it is my little David’s favorite.”
    Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
