OFICI, Traditional Craft Fair, was created with the mission of promoting the craft sector. Organised by the Consorci de Comerç, Artesania i Moda de Catalunya (CCAM) and Le Département, with the support of the Departament de Cultura of the Generalitat de Catalunya, this strategic partnership aims to develop a platform that fosters the integration of traditional craftsmanship into contemporary markets.

The fair is conceived as a space that highlights the value and relevance of traditional crafts in a contemporary context. Its aim is to showcase and promote excellence in craftsmanship, bringing together professionals, specifiers, makers and the general public. In doing so, OFICI positions craftsmanship as a cultural, creative and economic practice of the highest level, fostering the exchange of knowledge and increasing the visibility of the sector.

Beyond craftsmanship as its central focus, OFICI will feature a case study by the Associació per a l’Estudi del Moble (AEM), as well as special conditions for visiting the Salt Museum and Cardona Salt Mountain. The first edition will take place on 6, 7 and 8 November 2026 at Cardona Castle, with free admission and open access to the public.
