The itinerary.
3 days · 8 stops
Friday
Day One
Arrive, climb the Duomo rooftop before dark, then the metro south to Assago for night one
●
Duomo Rooftop
Walk among the 135 marble spires at sunset — the Madonnina glowing gold with the Alps behind on a clear November day. Book the lift + terraces ticket online.
●
Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II
The world's most beautiful shopping arcade — spin your heel on the bull mosaic for luck, then espresso standing at Camparino where the aperitivo was invented.
●
Dua Lipa at the Unipol Forum
Milan's 12,700-cap arena in Assago, straight down the M2 green line. Doors 18:30; Italian crowds sing every word — expect the loudest Levitating of the tour.

Getting around

Saturday
Day Two
Leonardo in the morning, Brera in the afternoon, Navigli aperitivo at dusk
●
The Last Supper
Fifteen minutes in front of Leonardo's mural, in groups of ~35 — tickets release about three months out and vanish in hours, so book the moment you have concert tickets. Santa Maria delle Grazie.
●
Brera District
Milan's artists' quarter — the Pinacoteca's Caravaggio and Hayez, the botanical garden hidden behind, and streets built for slow wandering.
●
Navigli Aperitivo
The canal district at dusk — Negroni sbagliato at Mag Café or Rita, with the canal lights doubling in the water. Aperitivo hour is 18:30–21:00, dinner after.

Sunday
Day Three
Sforza Castle and a last cotoletta before the airport train
●
Castello Sforzesco & Parco Sempione
The Visconti-Sforza fortress with Michelangelo's final, unfinished Pietà Rondanini inside — then a loop of Sempione park to the Arco della Pace.
●
Trattoria Milanese tradition
Cotoletta alla milanese or risotto giallo as the farewell lunch — Trattoria del Nuovo Macello does the definitive thick-cut version; book ahead.
