And how could you miss including the oldest antique market in Italy? The Fiera Antiquaria di Arezzo! https://fieraantiquaria.org/

Don’t forget the Mercato dell’Antiquariato in Bologna held on the second Saturday and Sunday of the month. It runs every month except for July and Aug. Please include more info about Bologna- as you know it’s increasingly attractive to students, expats and tourists. Thanks
