Torino Graphic Days Celebrates 10 Years at New Vitali Park Venue

festival-fair · 2026-04-26

The international festival Torino Graphic Days, founded in 2016 by Print Club Torino, Quattrolinee, and Plug, marks its tenth edition with a move to Vitali Park, a former industrial complex in Turin's Spina 3 district. Running until May 18, the event features talks, workshops, performances, a market exhibition, and school activities under the theme 'Love, Now!'. Artistic directors Ilaria Reposo and Fabio Guida highlight the festival's growth from a 4-day industry event to a 10-day program blending international designers (including 7 AGI members) with family activities. The new venue, a 1,600-square-meter space in a tertiary building never before used for cultural events, hosts 14 exhibition clusters. Highlights include 'Love, Now! the ways of love' exploring self-love, love for others, and nature; 'Eyes On Finland' showcasing Finnish graphic design; and the Demo Festival by Studio Dumbar and Exterion Media Netherlands, a motion design festival originating from Amsterdam Central Station. A call for under-30 designers, Neologia, offers emerging talent exposure and prizes. The festival extends across over 30 city venues, with events on May 9 and 16, including a quiz at Largo Montebello hosted by agency Sixeleven. Reposo and Guida express hope for a permanent home to enhance international appeal and community impact.
