Navigli Market Milano

·
Every last Sunday of the month, the Navigli Vintage Market lights up Milan, a true paradise for vintage and design lovers. On both sides of the Naviglio Grande, and spilling into dozens of charming side streets, you’ll find an endless mix of sellers. From seasoned antique dealers to young creatives showing their work for the very first time.
There’s truly something for everyone here: racks of vintage clothes, carefully curated accessories, one-of-a-kind furniture, stacks of vinyl, and unexpected little design objects you didn’t know you needed until you saw them.
When you need a break, you’re spoiled for choice with the cafés and restaurants just steps away. The food is just as tempting as the market — perfect for a quick espresso, a long lunch, or a gelato before diving back in. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming; people are happy to chat, bargain, or even point you to the nearest bathroom if you need one.
Our tip: if you want the best chance at finding something special, arrive the night before. That way, you can be there at 8 a.m. sharp, when the market first opens and the real gems haven’t been scooped up yet. And don’t stop at just the Navigli. There are plenty of other flea markets and antique shops nearby, and Milan’s city center is just a short ride away for even more design inspiration.
A presto!
