Steam Factory. Over 780 thousand visitors in five years

Since 2016 there have been 1.995 days open to the public and 19 co-productions

Milan, March 6 2021 - From 2016 to 2020 there were 789.107 visitors to the Fabbrica del Vapore, which hosted 19 co-productions for 1.995 days open to the public. Furthermore, since 2018 the spaces have hosted temporary events and events, for a fee or free of charge, for a total of 1.200 days.

The spaces of the Fabbrica del Vapore are divided into lots dedicated to the creation of public events, managed directly by the Municipality of Milan, such as the Cathedral, the Messina space, the Ex-cisterns, the Sala delle Colonne and the square, and 15 spaces for a total of 5.500 square meters which are assigned through concessions. For the assignment of one of the latter, the exploratory notice for expressions of interest for the development of the property in via Luigi Nono has been open since 2 March.

"In recent years, the Fabbrica del Vapore has become more and more a point of reference for the city, especially for young people, artists and families - comments Deputy Mayor Anna Scavuzzo - and we are thinking about how to continue this process of valorisation. Among the ideas we are evaluating there is the identification of a concessionaire to be entrusted with the development of a cultural proposal and the valorisation of the spaces as a location for events, all obviously in line with the identity of Fabbrica and under the supervision of internal coordination".

For the residences, which since 2018 have been for approximately 200 days, in 2020 the Council adopted the guidelines for the concession of the management service of residential, cultural and artistic-aggregative activities with the aim of identifying an economic operator to whom entrust the valorization activity and the procedures for the publication of the public notice are underway.
