The "Mostra Internazionale dell'Artigianato" (MIDA) or "International Handicrafts Market" welcomes artisans from all over the world as well as Italy. This is a unique fair, full of hand-made crafts from across the globe - clothing, furniture, carpets, jewelry, silverware, collectibles, gifts, wine, & food. It features traditional handmade products that are inspired by ethnic and classical history, and a mix of contemporary and classical tastes.

The Mostra Internazionale dell'Artigianato is an opportunity to get to know Florence and its artistic beauties, starting from the Fortezza da Basso, a masterpiece of Renaissance architecture. Built in the first half of the 16th century, to ensure control of the city to the Medici, today it is the main headquarters of the Florentine exhibition center.
