Vinyl and Comic Book Fair

A weekend of collecting in Valdinievole

The Vinyl and Comic Book Fair is one of the Tuscan stops on the touring circuit organized by the Associazione Culturale Fumetti e Dintorni, which brings high-quality collecting events to shopping centers. In Massa e Cozzile, a town in the Valdinievole area in the province of Pistoia (Tuscany), the event takes place in the galleries of the Centro Commerciale Montecatini, on Via Biscolla, just a stone's throw from Montecatini Terme and the Via Lucchese.

What to find at the fair

For three days, the shopping center's spaces transform into a large collector's market with about twenty specialized exhibitors. The public, from those nostalgic for the golden age of vinyl to young trading card enthusiasts, will find a wide and diverse assortment:

• Vinyl records of every musical genre, from rock to pop, jazz to Italian music, including LPs, 45s, and collector's editions;
• Comic books featuring rare and hard-to-find editions, vintage issues, first editions, and volumes highly sought after by collectors;
• Video games and retro consoles for those looking for the titles and platforms that made gaming history;
• Trading cards and stickers, with particular attention to Pokémon cards, among the most requested items by younger fans.

Buy, sell, and get free appraisals

The fair is not just a place to shop: it is also an opportunity to sell or have your old records, vinyls, and comics appraised for free. The exhibitors and industry experts present in the gallery offer no-obligation estimates—a service highly appreciated by those who have rediscovered old family collections in their basements or attics and want to know their value.

An event for the whole family

Thanks to free admission and the comfortable, indoor setting of the shopping center, the event is suitable for the whole family and accessible even during the winter season. It is an appointment that combines the passion of expert collectors with the curiosity of the little ones in an informal and welcoming atmosphere. The fair is held under the patronage of the municipal administration and is part of the cultural initiatives that enliven the Valdinievole area and the province of Pistoia.
