The fair beyond the fairgrounds
As always, the exhibition extends beyond the halls of Rho into the city itself. Through "Salone in the City", Milan hosts exhibitions, design itineraries, archives, cultural events, and installations throughout Design Week and Art Week.

One of this year's standout features is Design Kiosk 2026, returning for a third year from 17 to 26 April as a platform for publishing, public discourse, and community engagement.

Another highlight is Common Archive – La Notte Bianca del Progetto on 24 April, when historic design and architecture archives across Milan open to the public for a special evening programme.
