Expo 2027

Expo 2027's director put the figure at 141 registered countries in August 2026 and called it a historic record for a Specialised Expo (Astana 2017 hosted 115–117); the official Participants page counter last read 139. Treat it as a growing snapshot rather than a final total; our participant tracker keeps the current figure and the growth timeline with sources.

Check the country directory on this page — it lists every one of the 96 countries a source has publicly named, with regions and confirmation dates. Because the official list is published as a partial set of names rather than a complete table, absence from today's list does not always mean absence from the event.

Not yet as a complete table. The official page names only a subset of the 141 announced participants, and the full roster including international organisations and companies is still pending. Our tracker maintains the deduped, sourced list of every publicly named country.

The 25-hectare Surčin site has three interconnecting zones: the Thematic Area (education, music, sport and innovation), the International Participant Area (the national pavilions — later the new Belgrade Fair), and the Best Practice & Corporate Area (around 45 modular timber pavilions on a 9×9-metre grid).

22 national pavilions have public, sourced plans in our directory — Germany's 972 m² "Play for Progress" pavilion, Japan's fully published Basic Plan, Slovakia's winning "Living Playground" design and host Serbia's ~€40 million permanent flagship among them. Each profile lists what is confirmed versus reported.

No. The free Expo visa allows accredited Expo participants and staff to live and work in Serbia for the Expo period — it is for participants, not for general visitors, who rely on Serbia's normal visa policy.

Not yet. Every participating country gets a National Day, but the calendar has not been published — the only country-specific date public so far is Türkiye's planned 19 May 2027. We update the programme page as dates land.
