The world's most prestigious furniture fair. Over 2,000 exhibitors across 210,000 square meters at Fiera Milano Rho. For six days each April, Milan becomes the undisputed center of the design universe. VIPMAKKI secures trade-day access before public opening, guided tours with renowned design experts, private meetings with gallery directors, and exclusive previews of the year's most important collections.

While the Salone fills the fairgrounds, Fuorisalone transforms the entire city. Historic palazzos, converted warehouses, hidden courtyards, and deconsecrated churches become design installations. The Brera Design District is the spiritual heart, while Tortona and 5VIE offer the avant-garde. VIPMAKKI arranges private showroom visits, designer meet-and-greets, and access to invitation-only installations that most visitors never see.
