Mipel returns to Pavilions 1 and 3 of Fiera Milano-Rho, in conjunction with Micam Milano, from September 7 to 9, 2025. Now in its 128th edition, the event is bringing forward its dates, breaking with the traditional overlap with other fashion system trade shows. This decision was made necessary by the work that will be carried out on the exhibition center in preparation for the 2026 Winter Olympics. From the next edition, which will be held from February 22 to 24, 2026, the show will return to its usual calendar.

Promoted and organized by Assopellettieri with the support of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (MAECI) and ITA - Italian Trade Agency, and with the patronage of the Municipality of Milan, the event confirms its status as the international benchmark for the leather goods and fashion accessories sector.

With over 60 years of history, Mipel represents a crossroads of trends, inspiration, and business opportunities, with over 200 brands presenting their spring-summer 2026 collections, including both historic names and emerging realities, equally divided between Italian and international brands. To further support the event and offer greater business opportunities to exhibiting companies, this edition of Mipel will once again be able to count on the support of ITA - Italian Trade Agency through dedicated communication activities and, in particular, the international buyers incoming project. Thanks to this initiative, 23 selected professional operators from 10 countries will take part in the fair, helping to strengthen its international dimension.

Mipel continues to strengthen its global positioning thanks to a series of initiatives that combine the physical and digital worlds. Mipel Livestreaming, the live shopping format that sees international streamers presenting and selling products from a selection of brands at the fair live on their social media channels, has been confirmed for the September edition. This is aimed in particular at Asian markets, where this method is already very widespread and offers exhibitors an important opportunity for visibility and business.

The international vocation of the event is also expressed through its partnership with Viamadeinitaly, the digital platform that connects over 24,000 buyers with Italian manufacturers of excellence. Thanks to this collaboration, Italian companies at MIPEL can benefit from an exclusive showcase and cutting-edge digital tools. This concrete support amplifies opportunities for contact and promotes internationalization and digitalization.

"Mipel is a strategic moment for the entire leather goods supply chain. In a complex phase for the sector, it is essential to maintain solid reference points and continue to create spaces for openness, discussion, and business opportunities, especially in support of the small and medium-sized enterprises that form the backbone of the sector. The event remains an essential opportunity to showcase craftsmanship, support innovation, and promote the competitiveness of our companies on international markets," said Claudia Sequi, Mipel and Assopellettieri president.
