Milan in early October has a different kind of light: the air finally turns crisp, the city’s colors grow warmer, and the atmosphere becomes perfect for getting lost among the stalls of a vintage market. It’s the ideal Saturday morning, marked by the aroma of coffee, the rustle of old vinyl records to browse through, and the feel of fabrics steeped in history.
Whether you’re looking for an ’80s trench coat to brave the first cold snaps, an iconic design piece, or simply inspiration hidden among objects from another era, the treasure hunt is about to begin.
It’s one of the most beloved events in the NoLo neighborhood: Le Pulci Pettinate, the vintage market and creative shops fair organized by Salumeria del Design, returns to Via Stazio for its 31st edition. On Saturday, October 10, 2026, from 12:00 PM to 9:00 PM, the street transforms into a small festive village—admission is free.
The NoLo Market: Here’s the Schedule for Saturday, October 10
Among the stalls, you’ll find objects, clothing, books, records, modern antiques, furniture, and original handmade creations. The market runs all day, and those who wish can stop for lunch to enjoy the Salumeria’s homemade specialties or wait for happy hour—wine, spritz, and craft beer—served by the same establishment.
The musical lineup kicks off at 12:00 PM with a selection curated by Salumeria del Design, then picks up the pace: at 4:00 PM, The Rubber Four take the stage, followed at 6:00 PM by the Waddafolk Duo. At the same time, starting at 12:00 PM, TwisT brings Via Stazio to life with swing dance lessons and street dancing—no experience required. For those looking for a more permanent keepsake, Le Pulci Tatuate will be offering small, handcrafted tattoos all day long by mega stuuudio.
La Salumeria del Design is a cultural and creative space founded by a collective of designers, graphic artists, and artisans. Since 2017, the association has also served as a bar and tavern, open every evening, and regularly hosts musical events, art exhibitions, film screenings, and tastings.
Anyone wishing to participate as an exhibitor can email salumeriadeldesign@gmail.com by Friday, September 18, 2026.
