LINEAPELLE presents materials before they become a finished object. Leather, fabrics, synthetics, accessories and components come together in one professional setting. Designers, buyers and manufacturers visit to find the foundation for future collections and discuss it directly with suppliers.
The Summer 28 edition takes place on 23–25 February 2027 at Fieramilano Rho. The season name refers to future collections; the dates of the trip itself are in February 2027.
What to explore
Colour and first impressions are only part of the story. For a professional visitor, materials mean texture, properties and potential applications. Samples of leather, fabrics and components make it possible to compare offers and discuss how they will work in shoes, accessories and other products.
LINEAPELLE connects different parts of that work, from material producers to component suppliers. Build the visit around a specific task: finding fabric or fittings, exploring finishes or meeting existing partners. A clear purpose helps you navigate the variety on offer.
The Area Trend brings together samples selected from exhibitors’ proposals. It is an opportunity to see materials alongside one another and notice directions that can be harder to identify at a single stand. The organiser has rules for photography and working with samples; take them into account when visiting.
Who can attend?
LINEAPELLE is for accredited industry visitors with an admission ticket. The main offer concerns materials and components; it is not a retail exhibition of finished shoes and bags. Before travelling, check the requirements for your category on the official fair page.
The venue is Fieramilano Rho, Strada Statale del Sempione 28. Choose stand numbers and programme details from current information for the edition. If combining the visit with another fair, check each event’s admission rules: nearby dates do not automatically mean a shared pass.
Planning a transfer
If staying in Milan, you can discuss a hotel-to-Rho journey with Hola Taxi, giving your exact address, date and party size. A working group should decide whether everyone finishes together or has different plans.
Plan travel after a flight separately: Malpensa (MXP), Linate (LIN) and Bergamo (BGY) are different airports. Say whether you need to visit the hotel first or go straight to the fair. Discuss the return from Rho once your final appointments and plans for the day are clear.
