Last day of the San Benedetto market March 1st : then the transfer operations will begin which will last 17 days, then on March 18th the new structure in Piazza Nazzari will be inaugurated where the operators will remain for at least two years, the time necessary for the redevelopment of the historic market.
The mayor of Cagliari Massimo Zedda announced it this morning in a press conference called in the direction of the market which will close in two weeks to allow the renovation works to begin, which will last about two years.
"We need to hurry," Zedda said, "we've lost a year: we want to resume the activity of the historic market as soon as possible without introducing innovations that would distort the function of the structure: tastings can also be fine, but let's not invent restaurateurs. We also want to hurry to make Piazza Nazzari available again for shows."
