The national ceramics festival in the city of master potters
Albisola Superiore (Province of Savona) is one of Italy's ceramic capitals, a land of master potters and kilns that have shaped Ligurian majolica for centuries. Every spring, the town participates in Buongiorno Ceramica!, the national distributed festival promoted by AiCC (Italian Association of Ceramic Cities), which in 2026 will reach its twelfth national edition.
For Albisola Superiore, the event translates into exhibitions and photographic projects linked to the Albisola ceramic tradition, which enhance the artistic and artisanal heritage of the area. The event opens workshops, studios, and exhibition spaces, inviting the public to discover the work of ceramists up close and the history of an art that is part of the town's identity.
Buongiorno Ceramica! simultaneously involves dozens of Italian municipalities of the Ceramic Cities, from north to south. Albisola Superiore, along with nearby Albissola Marina, represents the Ligurian heart of this network, within the so-called "Baia della Ceramica" (Ceramics Bay), one of the most important artistic districts in Italy.
As part of the 12th national edition of Buongiorno Ceramica!, Albisola Superiore offers exhibitions and photographic projects dedicated to the Albisola ceramic tradition on May 23 and 24, 2026. The widespread national festival, promoted by AiCC, simultaneously involves the Italian Ceramic Cities, with Albisola Superiore as a protagonist within the Ligurian "Baia della Ceramica".
The detailed program, with times and locations of individual initiatives, is published on the national website www.buongiornoceramica.it and by the Municipality of Albisola Superiore.
By train: Albisola station on the Genoa–Ventimiglia line. By car: A10 motorway, Albisola exit, then historic centre.
Widespread initiatives with predominantly free admission. Programme at www.buongiornoceramica.it.
