Take part in MIDA, the Handicraft International Trade Fair
MIDA is the quintessential Crafts Fair in Italy.
Since 1931, this Fair has been celebrating the art of craftsmanship, exhibiting masterpieces by Italian and international artisans inside the historical premises of the Fortezza da Basso. Every booth tells the story of centuries of expertise, with creations ranging from glass to ceramics, and from jewellery to
fashion. But the Fair is not only about exhibiting. Visitors can also admire artisans working live and participate in workshops – an experience fusing past, present, and future.
A unique opportunity to discover the timeless charm of craftsmanship.
