In light of recent COVID-19 surges, Salone del Mobile.Milano has announced that it will postpone this year’s show. The 60th edition of the design showcase, which was initially scheduled to be held in April 2022, will now take place June 7th to June 12th, 2022.
“The decision to postpone the event will enable exhibitors, visitors, journalists, and the entire international furnishing and design community to make the very most of an event that promises to be packed with new things, in total safety,” says Salone president Maria Porro. “Moving the event to June will ensure a strong presence of foreign exhibitors and professionals, which has always been one of the Salone’s strong points, and it will also give the participating companies time to plan their presence at the fair as thoroughly as possible given that, as we know, the progression from concept to final installation takes months of preparation.”
This year’s show will remain at the Fiera Milano fairground and will feature a focus on sustainability.
“The desire for a Salone is increasingly strong, which is why we are working towards an event that will give everyone an opportunity to enjoy a unique, concrete, and exciting experience,” Porro adds. “We are all really longing for a Salone.”
