The international exhibition of contemporary textile art, an event that ties Como to its industry.
It is held every autumn, at Palazzo del Borgo and other venues around the city.
From 4 October to 1 November 2026 the 35th edition takes fragility as its theme. The 54 mini-textiles are at Palazzo del Borgo on Via Borgovico, and the large installations in four more venues, among them the old church of Sant'Agata on Via Cetti, reopening its doors after 57 years, and the ancient church of Sant'Orsola on Viale Lecco. The main venues open Tuesday to Friday 15:00 to 19:00 and Saturday and Sunday 11:00 to 19:00; they are closed on Mondays. The side events, from 17 September to 20 December, are at the Silk Museum, at Villa Bernasconi in Cernobbio and elsewhere. One ticket covers the whole show and is sold at Palazzo del Borgo and Sant'Agata vecchia; under-18s go free. Entry to Galleria Diaz 14 is free.
Distances as the crow flies from where the event is held.
