From 24 to 27 September 2026, Catanzaro will host the tenth edition of the Materia Independent Design Festival, a major international event dedicated to design.
Spanning over 5,500 m², the Ente Fiera exhibition centre will host exhibitions, installations, talks, workshops, and meetings with leading figures from the Italian and international creative scene. The festival will therefore become a platform for exchange and research, combining tradition, innovation, craftsmanship and new technologies.
Materia 2026 offers professionals, students, families and enthusiasts the chance to experience design collectively and engage with it in a city that, for four days, will become the beating heart of Mediterranean creativity.
*The calendar of events for 2026 is currently being finalised.
