The countdown has begun for the 9th edition of DaTE, the international exhibition dedicated to avant-garde eyewear, which will open at the Leopolda in Firenze on Saturday, September 11, and will continue until Monday, September 13.


A special edition that will take place in complete safety, following the regulations dictated by the Italian government for fairs and events. A great and further effort by the organizers in order to offer a unique event every year, maintaining its exceptional content as a leading appointment in avant-garde eyewear.


Access to the event for all participants (over the age of 12) will therefore be possible by presenting the full covid vaccination certificate (Green Pass), or with one of the requirements specified below:

  • certificate of vaccination (even of the first dose only, after 14 days from the shot)

  • rapid molecular or antigen test with a negative result within the previous 48 hours

  • certificate of recovery from Covid-19 infection within the previous 6 months


“DaTE represents an important moment for the eyewear sector: 2021 was not the year that everyone was hoping for, but we have never lost sight of the goal of our mission, to build an unmissable and original event, true fulcrum of the ferment and vivacity of avant-garde eyewear, an appointment that has grown year after year – comments Giovanni Vitaloni, President of DaTE. And for the ninth edition, now just around the corner, the team has worked constantly to make it unique and accessible in complete safety, applying the regulations and dedicating great attention and sensitivity to every detail in order to protect all those who will participate. A commitment which we firmly believe will produce a flagship eyewear event not only in Italy, but internationally “.
