In 2026, Vespa will turn 80. And it intends to celebrate this milestone in Rome between the 25th and the 28th of June. It is expected to be the biggest celebration in the history of the brand.

It is true that all roads lead to Rome.
All roads lead to Rome.

Tens of thousands of Vespa enthusiasts will descend on the city from all over the world. They are united by their passion for the scooter brand and their shared values of design and freedom.

Expect these guys to turn up!

Rome, the eternal city, has long been a symbol of Italy’s “Dolce Vita” and has therefore been selected as the perfect destination to celebrate the occasion. Like Vespa, it is an icon that doesn’t age, and it has reinventing itself over time to remain relevant.

From Hungary, for Italy.

Rome 2026 is shaping up to be an event that will go beyond a simple celebration of the passion for a unique vehicle. Over four days in June, Rome will play host to partying and special events, for Vespa fans and others.

The full programme will be revealed towards the end of this year.

Since 1946, Vespa has united generations of people from diverse cultures in a single passion. It has driven cultural, musical and youth trends. Vespa has long been a global brand that champions the values of technology, style and elegance.

So set aside the dates in June next year and visit Rome for a celebration of all things Vespa.
