Handicraft Market

An artisanal market in the heart of the Dolomites

The Handicraft Market is one of the most characteristic events of the summer in Soraga di Fassa, a small town in the Val di Fassa in the province of Trento, in the Trentino-Alto Adige region. The event takes place in the square adjacent to the playground, an open-air space that transforms for the occasion into a lively path of stalls where handmade creativity is the absolute star.

Artisanal creations

The market exclusively offers unique handcrafted creations, the result of the work of cultural associations and individual artists. Among the stalls, you will find objects ranging across different materials and techniques, in a blend of ancient knowledge and contemporary taste.

• Artifacts in glass, ceramics, wood, and metal
• Hand-worked textiles and embroidery
• Household items and tools
• Paintings and floral arrangements
• Collectibles and vintage items

Artists from the territory and beyond

Exhibitors come from both the Val di Fassa area and neighboring valleys, from South Tyrol, and from other Italian regions. This variety of origins makes each edition different from the last and offers visitors the opportunity to discover different artisanal traditions, from mountain wood carving to decorated ceramics, up to the embroidery and fabrics of the Alpine tradition.

An event for the whole family

The location next to the playground makes the Handicraft Market an appointment designed for both residents and guests on vacation, with an ideal setting for a family stroll. Admission is free and the relaxed atmosphere invites you to browse the stalls without haste, perhaps combining the visit with an excursion along the paths and landscapes of the Fassa Dolomites.

The context of Val di Fassa

The market is part of the rich summer calendar of events, markets, and festivals in the Val di Fassa, promoted by the Soraga di Fassa Tourist Office and the APT Val di Fassa. During the summer season, the town also hosts other events dedicated to craftsmanship and collecting, confirming Soraga's vocation as a small showcase of the manual skills and folk traditions of the Trentino Dolomites.
