.:. other  / August, pronounced “o ghost” 
August 1st through 31, 2015

August is the month when most of the Milanese go on holiday. Signs saying Chiuso per Ferie, closed for vacation, are posted almost everywhere and things to do and see in town are few and far between. Assorted open-air spots - the Sforza Castle among them - provide backdrops for a few concerts and performances, and the Expo is a must-see.
.:. The city is even more deserted around August 15, called Ferragosto. When Ferragosto comes, as this year, on a weekend, even the diehards surrender and abandon Milan.
