It has been customary for the country's prime minister to set out his government's policies for each coming year in a speech at the annual Thessaloniki International Trade Fair, and for this reason the event has political significance in addition to its commercial importance.
Similar trade fairs of the city have occurred regularly since the Byzantine era, attracting traders from all over the Balkans.
