The 2024 edition of Vespa World Days, the annual gathering of national Vespa Clubs from around the world, will take place from Thursday 18 to Sunday 21 April in Pontedera, the city where Vespa was born and has been produced continuously since 1946.
There will be 8,000 Vespisti representing 54 nations, over 660 Vespa Clubs from the five continents that registered for the event in just five days; 3,000 of them even in the first hour of registration opening!
Joining them will be thousands of curious onlookers and enthusiasts eager to discover the lands of Pisa behind the wheel of their beloved Vespa.
“We are hosting an international event with thousands of participants,” commented Matteo Franconi, Mayor of Pontedera, “that will have an exceptional impact on the entire area. This is an important recognition for the city of Pontedera, for the entire area, and for the community. It is an award that honors a brand that has written the history of Pontedera, an entrepreneurship that has been present for a hundred years with its factory, all the men and women who have worked at Piaggio, contributing to the birth and development of a true myth, and which, at the same time, is the culmination of a journey that the Vespa Club Pontedera has made over the years, with the many initiatives promoted over time that have brought us to this point.”
An event that extends in time and space, a meeting that aims to present the excellence of Tuscany to the world, a gathering of enthusiasts, groups of friends, and families who share a love for Vespa.
It will be a local event, sponsored by the Tuscany Region and Terre di Pisa, and, in addition to Pontedera, will also involve another 20 municipalities in the Valdera area, in full harmony with the program of the Italian Car Week 2024, since the city of Vespa is one of the bases of the ANCI Motor City Circuit.
