We are feeling a bit artsy, curious. When it comes to autumn/winter events in Italy, it becomes a challenge for the most interesting, and sometimes fancy, fair!
So we are here to take a look at what will be happening in Italy in the next months and to get ready in time for the events we cannot miss!
Italy is always buzzing for all kinds of occasions, it’s hard not to find ourselves thinking “this sounds great, I have to be there”. Have a look at our selection of fall & winter events and take notes!
October
This month the central town of Perugia (in Umbria) becomes a destination for chocolate lovers. The Eurochocolate fair (October 13th-22nd) celebrates the “nectar of the Gods” in all its shapes, flavours and origins. Stands from all over the world will allow visitors to taste and learn more about the art of chocolate. During the event, the attenders will witness the work of chocolate sculptures from chocolate blocks of over 2400 lb each!
November
“Artissima” (literally “super art”) is Italy’s most important contemporary art fair. Since its establishment in 1994, it has combined the presence of an international market with a focus on experimentation and research. It will be held in Turin from November 3rd to November 5th. Each year artists from all over the world partecipate in this unique events that also hosts special thematic exhibitions for emerging artists or digital art.
December
December is all about Christmas! While many cities organize Christmas markets, we think the ones in Bolzano, a town in one of the mountains region in Italy, are definitely the most beautiful and special. With over 70 shops, it’s also the biggest Christmas market in Italy. The mountains that surround the city create a idyllic atmosphere. And so are the bakers of ginger breads and warm wine (vin brulé) and the happiness of finding the perfect artisan gift for your loved ones.
January
We are calling for interior design and decor lovers! Milano is for the first year opening its gates for this new event that wants to probe the art of decorating homes. “Your way of living” means finding your beauty and express it through authentic and excpetional pieces of art to decor your personal space. Milano Home awaits you from January 11th to January 14th.
February
Verona, the city of love, the town of Rome and Juliet is about to hold a special event dedicated to love… or not! Romeo & Juliet Run Half Marathon is for sport and running lovers who also enjoy beautiful views during their workout: who can boast such romantic and beautiful streets for a marathon? To run in Verona is to travel in time into an historical and fascinating city!
March
We are ahead of time: this fair in the city of Parma will be held both in autumn and in spring. Two wonderful possibilities of exploring the art of vintage, second hand and antiques, for any collect lover out there.
