Discover Salone del Mobile Milano

The Salone Internazionale del Mobile di Milano – most commonly known as Salone del Mobile.Milano – was launched in 1961 as a vehicle to promote Italian furniture and furnishing accessories to the world.

The original sponsors were members of the Federelegno-Arredo trade association and it has become the largest trade fair of its kind in the world. The fair was an instant success, welcoming more than 12,000 visitors that first year.

It is widely considered the leading trade show for the international design community and has expanded to include furniture, lighting, kitchens, bathrooms, appliances, workspaces and so much more. The fair is held at the Fiera Milano complex in the Milanese town of Rho, having moved to that location in 1972.

Within the main furniture fair, a number of internal exhibitions have developed. Every even year sees EuroCucina (kitchens), FTK (appliances) and The International Bathroom Exhibition held, while ever odd year sees Euroluce (lighting) held. The annual exhibition SaloneSatellite was founded in 1998 and features young and emerging designers under 35 years as well as collaborations with universities and design schools.

The fair is attended by representatives from almost every country around the world drawing upwards of 370,000 visitors (in 2024) across the six days of the show.

Held as part of Milan Design Week, activity at the showground is supported by numerous installations throughout Milan’s eight Design Districts. Each design district has its own focus and ambiance, with a variety of exhibitions, pop-ups, lectures and so much more.

The sheer size and scale of the show make it a must-see location but the benefits of travelling with a group of like-minded colleagues can’t be understated. Join ACFA as we travel to Milan in 2026 but get in quickly! Places are limited and selling fast!
