Sat 6th of July 2019 in Spilamberto (Modena), Italy
An artisan pipemakers market is being set up in partnership with the artisan beer festival, which includes beer, street food,music and a handcrafts street market.
Location: The pipemakers event location will be on the ancient street, Via Obici, in the old Spilamberto downtown, under the historical portico. Next to the pipemakers market will be an area of vintage sofas and tables for pipe smokers and some old-school barber spaces. The idea is to attract a group of people that may not have been exposed to the pipe world before.The 2017 first edition has been a great success of audience.This 2018 edition will call a larger number of pipemakers with great names from Italy and Europe too.You can see info about accomodations,map and makers list on the event website.Feel free to ask for the agreement hotels
