The Moto Guzzi Open House Returns, Together With The Città Della Moto Guzzi RallyFrom 12 to 15 September, Mandello del Lario once again opens its doors to Moto Guzzi fans and motorbike enthusiasts from all over the globe.

And as ever, it looks set to be an incredible late-summer weekend with the colours and landscapes of the eastern shore of Lake Como, brimming with friendship, new encounters, stories of adventures and many, many Moto Guzzi bikes. All this will take place in the birthplace of Moto Guzzi, where the brand has been manufacturing its extraordinary motorbikes for more than a hundred years.

The celebrations will kick off on Thursday 12th of September, when the full programme of the Motoraduno Internazionale Città della Moto Guzzi will begin.

On the 13th, the Moto Guzzi Museum will welcome visitors to the 2024 edition of its Open House event, with thousands of guests expected. The historic factory in Via Parodi is being fully renovated as part of a revolutionary project, and the works in progress will continue over the next few months, before reopening in Mandello as an ultra-modern facility which will be the production site of the Moto Guzzi bikes of the future, as well as a new environment with open spaces for public use. It will also serve as a community hub and a special destination for motorbike fans from all over the world. As part of this year’s edition of the Open House, the Moto Guzzi Museum, with its priceless collection of more than 150 historic Moto Guzzi from every era, will welcome visitors.

As ever, the MOTO GUZZI OPEN HOUSE event will place passion for motorbikes at the heart of the celebrations, and as such, free test rides of motorbikes from the Moto Guzzi range will be available to visitors. On the breathtaking trails that wind along the side of the lake, fans will be able to get to grips with the classic V7 and V85 or the V100 and Stelvio bikes, powered by the new liquid-cooled, one-litre “Compact Block” engine.

The Moto Guzzi shop presents the perfect opportunity for splashing out on a shopping spree, with a host of branded merchandising and accessories.
