The fair that brings the center of Orbassano into bloom with flowers, home decor, and gardening
The Spring Fair is one of the most cherished events in the calendar of Orbassano, a town in the southern outskirts of Turin, within the Metropolitan City of Turin and the Piedmont region. Its origins date back to the second half of the 18th century: born as a public market, it has evolved over the centuries into a true city fair, surviving regulatory and socio-economic changes while preserving its original spirit as a village festival and a place for meeting.
The central theme of the event is home, decor, gardening, and leisure. For an entire Sunday, the historic center is filled with stands showcasing the latest in home furnishings, gardening, and recreation, while nurserymen and florists display flowers and plants that fill the streets with the colors and scents typical of spring. Alongside the exhibitors, there is no shortage of crafts, tastings, and local products, with many shopping opportunities and city center shops open for the occasion.
The fair unfolds along the main streets and squares of the center: via Alfieri, via San Rocco, via Roma, and via Vittorio Emanuele II, leading up to piazza Umberto I, the heart of the event. Viale Regina Margherita hosts numerous activities and initiatives specifically designed for children.
The Spring Fair is more than just a market: it is a day designed as a moment of meeting and recreation for the entire community. With music, entertainment, games, and a children's market, the event offers a dynamic and inclusive experience that brings different generations together. One of the most anticipated moments is the free distribution of flowers in piazza Umberto I in the afternoon, a symbol of the bond between the fair and the awakening of nature.
Organized by the Municipality of Orbassano, the Spring Fair is the ideal opportunity to rediscover the city center, shop for home and garden, taste local products, and enjoy a Sunday in the open air. A free event accessible to everyone that, for over two centuries, has officially marked the arrival of spring in the Turin area.
The Spring Fair returned to Orbassano on Sunday, April 12, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 7:30 PM, enlivening the city center with the usual theme of home, decor, gardening, and leisure. The initiative, organized by the Municipality of Orbassano, aimed to revive a tradition awaited by citizens, transforming the day into a moment of meeting and recreation open to all.
Along via Alfieri, via San Rocco, via Roma, and via Vittorio Emanuele II, there were stands with novelties for home furnishing, gardening, and leisure, as well as displays of flowers and plants, crafts, tastings, and local products. The shops in the center remained open for the occasion.
