Since its founding in 1914, EICMA — an acronym for International Motorcycle & Accessories Exhibition — has been the powersports world’s leading trade show and to this day, Italian companies continue to lead innovation and design in the powersports industry, notes new commissioner Giosafat Rigano. “It only makes sense that the Italian Trade Agency would have an interest in supporting AIMExpo in America.”
Originally envisioned as the “EICMA of America” when it was launched more than a decade ago, AIMExpo has a longstanding relationship with the Los Angeles office of the Italian Trade Agency… Dealernews was just lucky enough to meet with the Commissioner at AIMExpo to get the scoop that the Italian Pavilion will be greatly expanded at AIMExpo 2026.
“The Italian Pavilion is returning to the show floor in Anaheim in 2026,” confirms Commissioner Rigano. “Benvenuto in Italia, we welcome dealers to see some of the best of Italy in Anaheim next January.”
