An unmissable event for every Guzzista is on the Australian horizon!

We will hear the voices of the founders' grandchildren, the children of former employees of the Larian company, motorcycling journalists, brand historians, and those who brought the Moto Guzzi name to the highest podiums.

A dream that has become accessible to all, a shared reality on the roads of the world.

This testifies to the quality and depth of a work that goes beyond simple narration, offering insights and inspiration. The atmosphere of the evening will be steeped in history and a deep sense of belonging to the large Moto Guzzi family, an experience every Guzzista should embrace.
