Five days of intense emotions from 14 to 18 May: the first day is dedicated to the veterans of the Freccia Rossa; the second day in Brescia - with evening departure and arrival in Ferrara; on the third day everyone reaches Rome; the fourth day the rally returns, at night, to Brescia and the fifth day is the day of the awards ceremony.
Each of these days is made up of countless special moments: the presentation of the cars, the departure, parades in the historic centres, spectators waiting at the hairpin curves, admirers in the parking areas and, finally, the awards. Five days of memorable experiences for everyone, in which participants live their own personal Mille Miglia. Five days bigger than the sum of their time.
