Villa Ciani, a unique location

Villa Ciani — a neoclassical gem and one of Lugano’s most iconic landmarks — has proven over the years to be the perfect setting for a high-end event dedicated to contemporary arts. It’s the ideal backdrop for YouNique Boutique Fair of Arts, thanks to its prestige and undeniable charm, making it one of the most remarkable venues in all of Italian-speaking Switzerland.

With its 34 magnificent rooms — most of them frescoed, filled with natural light, and featuring elegant parquet floors — the villa offers stunning views over Lake Lugano, providing an exquisite stage for presenting artworks to a discerning and refined audience. Lugano’s central and strategic location attracts not only visitors from Ticino and Northern Italy, but a wider public from across Central Europe.
