Families looking for something fun (and free) to do this weekend can head to Macclesfield retail destination Arighi Bianchi, where a full day of Easter activities, treats and entertainment is planned for Saturday.
Taking place on 11 April from 10am to 3pm, the Easter Family Fun Day will include a popular Easter Egg Hunt, a special appearance from the Easter Bunny, and plenty of activities to keep little ones entertained — making it the perfect last-minute plan for the holidays.
The 170-year-old Macclesfield furniture store has quietly become one of Cheshire’s most unexpected event venues, hosting everything from global tasting evenings and design workshops to family days and seasonal celebrations. And this Spring, the calendar is busier than ever.
This Spring at Arighi Bianchi
Throughout April, Arighi Bianchi is offering expert advice in store on improving sleep and creating a more restful bedroom. Customers purchasing a Hypnos mattress and bed base this month will have the chance to win a luxury stay at The Lowry Hotel. Shoppers buying a qualifying Hypnos bed and base will also receive a £50 Lowry Hotel voucher.
An Interiors Inspiration Event on 16 April offers customers the chance to meet experts from some of the leading brands available at Arighi, discuss style ideas and gain first-hand advice. Tickets are available via Eventbite.

For those looking to refresh their homes this spring, Arighi’s Spring promotion has officially launched, bringing a range of exceptional offers across every department, including additional savings on bestselling pieces. As part of the event, customers can also enjoy complimentary gift vouchers worth up to £100 to spend in CASA, Arighi Bianchi’s home accessories lounge – perfect for discovering beautifully curated gifting, homewares, lighting and mirrors.
The store’s new interiors department allows customers to explore the brand’s signature heritage prints and contemporary weaves, which can be used to personalise curtains, blinds, wallpapers, sofas, chairs, headboards and cushions. The new flooring department has also launched with a new immersive display within the store, showcasing its range of beautifully crafted floors from Woodpecker, Karndean and Floorify.
Be transported to Brazil with ‘Postcards From Rio’
Arighi has launched its latest travel-inspired campaign, Postcards From Rio, bringing the colour, energy and spirit of Brazil to Cheshire – along with the chance to win a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Rio de Janeiro. The campaign is the seventh destination in the retailer’s award-winning ‘Postcards From’ series.
Sarah Bianchi, CEO of Arighi Bianchi, says:
“Travel has always been part of our story. Our founders, Antonio Arighi and Antonio Bianchi, travelled from Lake Como to Macclesfield to start the business in 1854. The Postcards From campaigns celebrate that same spirit of adventure and the way global design influences shape how we style our homes.
“Brazilian interiors have an incredible sense of energy and optimism. What I love most is the way colour, pattern and natural materials are used together so effortlessly. It feels vibrant but still relaxed and liveable, which is exactly how many people want their homes to feel.”
In store and online, Postcards From Rio features vibrant showroom displays, a curated collection of home accessories and furniture, and a programme of themed events and experiences designed to capture the essence of Brazilian style.
Arighi Bianchi has also collaborated with Coat Paints to create a new ‘Postcards From Rio’ shade developed exclusively for the campaign, capturing the vibrant ocean blue tones and colour confidence associated with Brazilian interiors.
And an exciting partnership with Brazilian heritage fragrance house Granado sees it bring the scent of Rio to the store. Founded in Rio de Janeiro in 1870, the iconic brand is known internationally for its perfumes, soaps and home fragrances inspired by Brazilian botanicals and traditional apothecary craftsmanship.
Postcards From Rio is now live in store and online, with details of events and competitions available on the website.
Details of all events can be found at arighibianchi.co.uk or by visiting the store on The Silk Road, Macclesfield.
