President of Salone del Mobile Maria Porro explained: “The decision to postpone the event will enable exhibitors, visitors, journalists and the entire furnishings and design community to make the very most of an event that promises to be packed with new things, in total safety.”

For the first time and celebrating the importance of the event, the show will include kitchen show Eurocucina, appliance fair FTK, the International Bath Fair and lighting event Euroluce at the same time.

Mario Porro added: “As well celebrating a major anniversary, the event will focus on the theme of sustainability, acting as a showcase for the progress made in this regard by creatives, designers and companies.

“Moving the event to June will ensure a strong presence of foreign exhibitors and professionals, which has always been one of Salone’s strong points, and it will also give the participating companies time to plan their presence at the fair as thoroughly as possible given that, as we know, the progression from concept to final installation takes months of preparation.

“The desire for a Salone is increasingly strong, which is why we are working towards an event that will give everyone an opportunity to enjoy a unique, concrete and exciting experience.

“We are all really longing for a Salone.”
