If you’re coming to Milan for a trade fair or a congress, the most important thing is not wasting time between your bed and the halls. Teodorico Apartments Milano is at Viale Teodorico 7, in the Portello district: about a 10-minute walk from Fiera Milano City and Allianz MiCo, and on a direct metro line to Rho Fiera.

Milan’s two fair centres: don’t mix them up

Milan has two exhibition sites, and many visitors only find out at the last minute:

Fiera Milano City and Allianz MiCo Rho Fiera (fieramilano)
Where In the city, Portello and Tre Torri Outside the city, in Rho
Typical events Congresses, conventions, shows such as miart Major fairs: Salone del Mobile, EICMA, MIDO, MICAM, TUTTOFOOD
From Viale Teodorico 7 On foot, about 10-15 minutes M5 + M1 (change at Lotto), about 35 minutes

Always check the event website for the venue. From Portello you’re well placed for both: walking distance to one, no changes to the other.

Events to book early for

  • February: MIDO (eyewear) and MICAM (footwear) at Rho; Fashion Week across the city.
  • April: Salone del Mobile at Rho and Fuorisalone all over town; miart at Allianz MiCo.
  • May: TUTTOFOOD at Rho.
  • September: MICAM and Fashion Week.
  • November: EICMA at Rho.
  • All year: medical congresses and conventions at Allianz MiCo.

In these weeks prices rise and availability disappears. The advice is simple: book as soon as you know your dates, even months ahead.

Apartment or hotel during a fair?

For one night a hotel is fine. For three or four nights of fair, an apartment has real advantages:

  • more space: living room, bedroom and kitchen, not just a room;
  • breakfast and dinner when you like, away from restaurants packed with exhibitors;
  • a table to prepare samples, presentations and notes for the next day;
  • two colleagues can share a one-bedroom instead of paying for two rooms.
