Expo 2023 is a cancelled specialized exhibition that was scheduled to be held in 2023 in Buenos Aires, Argentina.[3] The Bureau International des Expositions (BIE) awarded Buenos Aires as the host on November 15, 2017. This was to have been the first time that a BIE Expo was held in Argentina, and the first in the country since BIE's creation.[4] In October 2020, Argentina announced that due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the ensuing financial crisis, the Expo would not be held as planned in 2023.[5][6]
The exhibition was scheduled to take place between 15 January and 15 April 2023.[3] The predicted number of visitors was 9.4 million, with 79% visiting for a day and 4% international visitors.[7] Over 100 countries were expected to participate.[7]
