The premier gathering for vinyl and music collectors in Southern Italy
The Bari Record Fair has become a staple for collectors, DJs, and music enthusiasts from across Puglia and neighboring regions. Born as a traveling exhibition and having grown with every edition, the event brings together dozens of specialized exhibitors in one venue, showcasing thousands of 33 and 45 RPM vinyl records, CDs, DVDs, cassettes, posters, original gadgets, and autographed memorabilia. It is a total immersion into record culture, where the crackle of the needle and the hunt for a rare copy become an experience to be lived in person.
The beauty of the fair is its variety: at the stalls, you will find genres for every taste, from international rock to jazz, soul to funky, as well as metal, punk, psychedelia, progressive, disco, hip-hop, folk, Italian singer-songwriters, and classical music. Alongside the great classics of music history, you can find rare editions, collector's pressings, and elusive piecesโwhich is why many visitors arrive with their wantlist in hand, ready to hunt for a bargain.
Hosted for years at the Palamartino in Bari, in 2026 the event takes a major step forward by moving to the new Palazzetto dello Sport in Triggiano, on Viale Ezio Vanoni, a spacious indoor venue capable of comfortably accommodating both exhibitors and the public. The Municipality of Triggiano, in the province of Bari, is collaborating on the organization, a sign of how deeply rooted the fair has become in the metropolitan area of Bari.
Beyond buying and selling, the fair offers moments of encounter and culture: book presentations, autograph sessions, and live performances bring the two days to life. The 2026 edition features the participation of BeSound, an arts and music school from Triggiano, with a series of acoustic live sets that provide the soundtrack to your stroll through the stalls.
Admission to the Bari Record Fair is always free, a detail that makes it accessible to families, the curious, and collectors of all ages. Organized by Ernyaldisko and Music Day Roma, two of the most important entities in the sector in Italy, it is the ideal destination for those looking to expand their personal record collection or simply soak up the unique atmosphere of music collecting in Puglia.
The 8th edition of the Bari Record Fair marked the move of the event to the new Palazzetto dello Sport in Triggiano, on Viale Ezio Vanoni, with the collaboration of the Municipality of Triggiano. For two days, from 10 AM to 8 PM, enthusiasts and collectors were able to immerse themselves in the world of vinyl with records of every genre: rock, jazz, soul, metal, punk, hip-hop, disco, progressive, and classical music. Alongside the exhibitors' stalls, the program also offered cultural moments and live music. Admission was free.
On Saturday, January 31, at 5 PM, there was a presentation of the book Il miglior Gianni della nostra vita with the presence of Gianni Ciardo and co-authors Domenico Palattella and Lorenzo Procacci Leone, followed by an autograph session. On both days, Saturday, January 31, and Sunday, February 1, the BeSound arts and music school of Triggiano enlivened the fair with a series of acoustic live sets.
The new Palazzetto dello Sport is located on Viale Ezio Vanoni in Triggiano (BA). By car, it is easily accessible from the SS16 (Triggiano exit) with ample parking nearby. By train, the Triggiano station on the Ferrovie del Sud Est line connects the town to the center of Bari.
The fair is open from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM on both days. Admission is free, with no reservation required.
