According to local authorities, seven exhibitions will be held in Ningbo international Exhibition Centre in March, including the 13th International Machinery Industry Exhibition, the 5th China (Ningbo) International Boutique Furniture Exhibition and the 17th Ningbo International Auto Expo. These events are good opportunities for consumers in Ningbo to find a good home decoration company, or to buy a piece of new furniture or even a new car.

Almost every day in March will see an exhibition ongoing. Sometimes two exhibitions might be held at the same time, but in different pavilions.

These exhibitions come in all sizes. Some might just take up in one pavilion while others may occupy three or four pavilions. One of the most striking scene will be the 17th Ningbo International Auto Expo held on March 23 to 26, which takes up all the eight pavilions in the Exhibition Center. Moreover, 10 car exhibitors have to display their cars in the outdoor open space.

Some exhibitions are so important that they serve as industry benchmark. Take the 13th International Machinery Industry Exhibition as example.

The fifth China (Ningbo) international Boutique furniture from March 9 to 12 remains a topic of concern, for it will show if Ningbo furniture market can survive the effect from the recent control policy over property market regulation.
