Handicrafts Trade Fair Florence 2019
The long awaited International Handicrafts Trade Fair 2019 in Florence is one of the cult appointments created in the city area, an event that is renewed for the 83rd time and that will be held from 24th April to 1st May at the Fortezza da Basso. A perfect opportunity to enjoy the city, discover nice ideas at the fair and spend a few days in our bed and breakfast in Florence close to the Duomo.
Since 1931 this manifestation celebrates the Italian and international craftsmanship through stands that blend cultures and traditions from all over the world, with Iran guest of honour.
