Tips
Arrive early for the best stalls, have lunch in an osteria, then see Piero della Francesca's frescoes in the Basilica of San Francesco. Traders: there's room for a van in the square in front of the house.
About the fair
Founded in 1968, Arezzo's Fiera Antiquaria is one of Italy's oldest and largest antique markets: hundreds of dealers fill Piazza Grande, Vasari's Loggia, Corso Italia, Piazza San Francesco and the lanes around the cathedral, selling furniture, ceramics, silver, paintings, jewellery, old books, vintage and mid-century design.
Tips
- Go early: serious collectors do their round in the first hours.
- Saturday is calmer than Sunday if you want to bargain at leisure.
- Bring a tape measure and your room sizes if you're hunting for furniture.
- Shipping: many dealers ship abroad; with your car parked at the door you can also load up easily.
