Art market Private jet
Why the circuit stops here
The mother fair. For one week Basel is the global art market’s clearing house: museum-grade works sell in minutes at First Choice, and the year’s prices are set.
The money signal
Several billion dollars of art under one roof; eight-figure sales before the public doors open.
Who's there
Top-100 collectors, museum trustees, every blue-chip gallery on earth.
How they arrive
- Private aviation is the default: expect FBO slots and hotel helipads to be the real constraint, not tickets.
