Summer is in full swing and, for those who haven't left yet or have chosen to spend a few more weeks in the city, Milan continues to offer countless opportunities to make the most of the season. To help you discover new openings, exclusive events and the best places to spend an afternoon with friends, nss edicola returns with its weekly selection of unmissable recommendations.
Here are 5 things to do in Milan this weekend.
Where to Eat - Misale
Misale is a project that reconnects with the roots of language while celebrating the dining table as the heart of everyday life. Its very name, a term of Campanian origin, reflects its deep connection with the Neapolitan tradition, reinterpreted within a space designed to feel like home even for those just passing through the city. Here, the flavours of traditional cuisine meet a contemporary approach, built around fresh seasonal ingredients that highlight local produce without compromising attention to detail.

To Chill - The Rocky Horror Picture Show @ Cinema Godard
If you're looking to kick off the weekend with a cult cinema classic, on Friday, July 3, Cinema Godard at Fondazione Prada will screen The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Jim Sharman's iconic musical that has become a true cult phenomenon over the years. It's the perfect opportunity to (re)discover a film that, more than fifty years after its release, has lost none of its rebellious spirit or its power to captivate audiences. Tickets are available here.
