Mondadori Store, the largest network of bookstores in Italy, is reopening its store in Seregno, in the Province of Monza and Brianza. Established in 2006, Mondadori Bookstore will once again be a socio-cultural reference point for the entire area as of Saturday, November 2, with a completely renovated layout, furniture and offerings.

The store will enliven the central Vittorio Veneto Square by serving as a hub dedicated to reading and entertainment, with a focus on young people.

The grand opening of the bookstore is scheduled for Sunday, November 3, at 11 a.m. Federica Perelli, Culture Councillor on the Seregno City Council will also be present at the ribbon-cutting ceremony. As special guest for the occasion, Iginio Massari will be signing copies of his latest book ‘Giorni mesi anni di una vita intensa’ published by Baldini&Castoldi.

‘It has been 18 years since I fulfilled my dream of becoming a bookseller. In 2006, I opened the first bookstore in the area together with Mondadori Store, a strategic, key partner. From the beginning, the store has always stood out for its wide selection of books, welcoming atmosphere, and the team’s dedication to creating a cultural space accessible to everyone, from experienced readers to those taking their first steps in reading,’ says Miriam Vazzola, Mondadori Store associate. ‘This year marks a new phase for the Mondadori Bookstore in Seregno. The renovation is designed to modernise the spaces and enhance the offerings to improve the visitor experience, making the bookstore even more functional and welcoming. This restyling represents my daughter Carolina’s and my desire to continue a path that looks to the future, preserving the soul of the bookstore as a place of inspiration and passion for reading, today and in the years to come, especially for the next generations,’ the associate concludes.

The new Mondadori Bookstore has a floor area of 170 square meters and a catalogue of more than 10,000 titles, from the great classics to best sellers, including fiction, nonfiction and miscellaneous. Special attention is given to younger readers with the We are Junior format, which includes educational games and picture books to stimulate their imagination with the most intriguing stories, and a department dedicated to Just Comics and the manga phenomenon. Areas dedicated to #BookTok, for the new generation of readers, as well as stationery, toys and gift cards, also expand the bookstore’s offer.

The store promotes initiatives with different organisations in the area, with a special focus on collaborating with schools through meetings and educational events that bring girls and boys closer to the world of culture. These include the project ‘Alunni in Libreria’, designed to convey a passion for reading to children. In addition, the bookstore has renewed its collaboration with the City of Seregno, which makes the Auditorium available to encourage meetings with authors and personalities from the world of entertainment.

The Mondadori Bookstore in Seregno also serves readers online: customers can keep up to date through the Instagram and Facebook pages. They will also be able to get in touch with the store through Mondadoristore.it digital services to check if a book is available, order it and pick it up in store or have it shipped, choosing from a catalogue of over 1 million titles. The bookstore will also offer customers the opportunity to place orders via telephone.

The new Mondadori Bookstore follows the plan for renewal and development of Mondadori Store, the largest bookstore network in Italy, with more than 500 stores in cities and smaller towns. The cultural organisation is active throughout the country, online with the e-commerce site Mondadoristore.it and the book club. In addition to books, its primary service, it also provides entertainment, events and multichannel services, reaching more than 20 million customers every year.
