We’re at Idroscalo Milano, Porta Maggiore entrance. Getting here by car is a breeze—there’s plenty of parking. Or take the metro and hop off at Linate Aeroporto on the M4 (Blue) line. From there, it’s just a 10-minute stroll (900 m) along the pedestrian and bike path toward the park. Not in the mood for a walk? Just hop on the 183 bus or line 923—it’s only one stop away. Porta Maggiore.

What happens at the Festival?

A weekend full of expos, workshops, talks, and activities dedicated to running enthusiasts. The beating heart is a large expo area where the best brands in the running industry present previews of the current season's collections, accompanied by specific clinics to explore product features. To top it all off, a rich program of activities ranging from workshops and talks to product testing, screenings, and debates on the running world. For the more active, there will be races and many community runs. All in an informal atmosphere, where there will be plenty of moments to relax, meet new friends, and catch up with old ones, perhaps while sipping a beer. New for this edition: live music from 5:00 PM and a large area with vegetarian-themed food trucks!

Which sports will be at the Festival?

Road running and trail running will be the true stars in all their variations, with activities, workshops, and product trials designed for each discipline.

Why did you choose Milan for the Festival?

We chose Milan because the city represents a strategic hub for all of Italy and Europe. Milan is easily accessible to everyone in a short time and by any means of transport, making it the ideal meeting point. And let's not forget that Milan is the province with the highest number of running enthusiasts.

Is it possible to make purchases during the Festival?

The latest items from the current season will be on display at the festival; brands are free to sell a selection from their collection with a mandatory trade fair discount. There will be no clearance sales of products from previous seasons.

Who can enter on the B2B Monday?

Monday is an exclusive day reserved for retailers and industry professionals, featuring a preview of new products and prototypes for the SS and FW 26/27 seasons. Unfortunately, the general public cannot enter.
