Milano Design Week

Salone del Mobile and Fuorisalone 2024


Milano Design Week, 5 things not to be missed today

Fuorisalone has officially started: from Alcova, a new and incredible venue on the outskirts of Milan, to the Flos performance in the center and the ever-present Gaetano Pesce, here’s a list of what to see on this first day of Design Week.

The Milan Design Week finally comes back to being in April, after skipping an edition due to the pandemic and holding two editions on odd months, September (2021) and June (2022).

There are great expectations for this 2023 Fuorisalone, which involves about 1200 events, 40% more than last year, that will take place in new or suburban neighborhoods. Together with some returning neighborhoods, like Brera, Zona Tortona, Isola and Cinque Vie, there are some new ones, like Porta Venezia and Garegnano, and other satellite entities like Alcova (which moved to the Calvairate area) of the Marchiondi Institute in Baggio.

Milan is getting ready to welcome designers, architects, artists, and visitors from all over the world by offering its historical and cutting-edge gems scattered all over the city. Many have already arrived during the weekend, but the number will continue to grow as tomorrow’s inauguration at Rho Fiera Milano approaches.

While waiting for the Salone del Mobile to open its doors, we selected the venues you can visit today. Take a look at the gallery to find out more.
