The Shanghai World Expo Museum brings a 330 m² pavilion to the Best Practice Area of Expo 2027 Belgrade — an exhibition on what Expo 2010 Shanghai left its city, shown at an Expo explicitly designed around its own afterlife. Part of the China Pavilion presence →
The World Expo Museum in Shanghai — the official museum of the World Expo movement — will debut a 330-square-metre pavilion in Expo 2027 Belgrade's Best Practice Area, in its Art and Museum Section. Its participation was formalized via a signing reported by the BIE, making it one of the first named non-state participants of the Belgrade event.
The exhibition examines Expo 2010 Shanghai's impact on urban development, public spaces and city governance — and its post-event legacy. That subject lands well in Belgrade: the Expo 2027 site is itself designed around its afterlife, with the International Participant Area becoming the new Belgrade Fair and the wider Surčin development (housing, National Stadium, transport) planned to outlive the 93-day event.
Where to find the World Expo Museum presence, and the guides that cover the trip.
National pavilions sit in the International Participant Area of the 25-hectare Expo site at Surčin, in the western part of Belgrade — the zone that becomes the city's new Belgrade Fair after the event. The site is about 5 km from Nikola Tesla Airport and roughly 13.5 km southwest of central Belgrade (official planning figures), so if you fly in, you land closer to the Expo grounds than to town. Exact positions within the zones haven't been published yet; we'll add the location when the site plan lands.
Specialised Expo, 93 days. Every participating country also gets a National Day — that calendar isn't published yet.
Free city transport, taxi apps, and an airport railway still under construction — the honest status of every route.

No — it is a separate presence in the Best Practice Area, alongside China's national participation. We profile it under China as a related Chinese participant; China's own national pavilion details have not been published yet.
