The grand traditional fair in the historic center of Volpiano
The Spring Fair is one of the most cherished events for the community of Volpiano, a town of approximately 15,000 inhabitants located in the plains northeast of Turin, in the Metropolitan City of Turin (Piedmont). Every year, in the first days of May, the historic center transforms into a large open-air festival space: along Corso Regina Margherita, from Porta Ruvey to Piazza Mazzini, and throughout the streets and squares of the center, dozens of stalls attract visitors from all over the Canavese and Turin areas.
The heart of the fair is the large open-air market, with exhibitors dedicated to handicrafts, hobbies, local products, and a rich selection of flowers and plants, perfect for those looking to refresh their gardens and balconies with the arrival of spring. There is no shortage of diverse items and offerings related to the agricultural world, in an atmosphere that combines shopping, strolling, and conviviality.
Alongside the commercial aspect, the Pro Loco offers a program of cultural and entertainment initiatives. Recurring highlights of recent editions include photographic and art exhibitions set up in the town center, the LEGO brick display from the side event dedicated to modeling, and activities for children. The soundtrack of the day is provided by the concert of the Filarmonica Volpianese, which performs in the early afternoon.
There is also space for good food with the traditional Country Lunch organized by the Pro Loco and food stands featuring Piedmontese cuisine, often accompanied by solidarity initiatives such as fundraisers for charitable associations.
The Spring Fair is much more than a market: it is an occasion where the Volpiano community gathers, local associations showcase their work, and the historic center comes back to life. Admission is free, and the event is designed for families, curious visitors, and enthusiasts of local traditions, in full alignment with the calendar of events that the Pro Loco organizes throughout the year.
The 2026 Spring Fair in Volpiano took place on Sunday, May 3, 2026, as indicated in the official Pro Loco Volpiano calendar. The event brought Corso Regina Margherita and the historic center to life with the usual stalls of handicrafts, hobbies, local products, flowers, and plants.
Alongside the market, the weekend of May 2-3 hosted the modeling exhibition, an ideal continuation of the popular exhibition dedicated to LEGO bricks. Other beloved attractions were also confirmed, such as the vintage tractor show, exhibitions, and the concert by the local band.
