As well as the philatelic ‘treats’, there will be plenty of food and drink on offer. Catering will be available on the first floor of the S-Arena throughout the exhibition. A ‘get-together’ for self-paying visitors will take place as early as Thursday. You’ll have to choose between an Italian and a Chinese restaurant.

The Berlin Stationery Collectors’ Association of 1901 invites you to a gala evening at the Ofenhaus on Friday. On Saturday, the gala evening with the awards ceremony will take place at the Stadthalle am Steintor. The registration forms are now available.
BEPHILA 2026 will be held in July under FEPA Recognition.
The Balkanfila Working Group has recently released its second consecutive yearbook. This 198-page edition features more than twenty philatelic articles from across the Balkan Peninsula.
The American Numismatic Association has confirmed their participation in Boston 2026 World Expo by hosting a booth and organizing a Scouting coin collecting merit badge workshop during the show.
Founded in 1891, the ANA and its membership of 25,000 collectors is headquartered in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Its web domain name says it all, money.org, being dedicated to the study, collection, and appreciation of coins, paper currency, and other forms of numismatic items.
The word “stamp” is missing from the Expo’s title. That was intentional early on. While stamps and philately is the show’s primary focus, Boston 2026 is broadening its appeal by welcoming a number of related collectibles on display, in competition, and on sale by dealers. Ephemera and deltiology are just two among them. Coins and banknotes are natural additions to this list, as many collectors delve into multiple areas of interest.
Per Christian Strayhorn, ANA Education Director, “The collaboration’s goal is to share the love of collecting. Whether stamps, or coins, or something else, the collecting community shares a passion for ‘the hunt.’ We saw the Expo as an opportunity to educate philatelists on numismatics, while encouraging cross-over collecting.”
