Uinterparti 2025: Anima Guzzista meeting in Mandello

The Guzzista winter lights up on November 15, 2025, with the return of the "Duevolte-esimo Uinterparti" (the "Twice-nth" Uinterparti), the inimitable convivial gathering organized by Anima Guzzista. As the event poster playfully points out, it's the "second time in the same year" — an unmissable event that defies all logic, but not passion.

The location could only be the "legendary" Polisportiva Comunale (Community Sports Hall) in Mandello del Lario, the only place where a Guzzista truly feels at home. The day will be enriched by a unique afternoon prologue: an exclusive visit to the MotoAirBag factory in Badile (MI), to get an up-close look at the production reality of these safety devices.

The heart of the event, however, remains the evening in Mandello: a large community dinner. The participation fee is set at 35 euros, a "nice and easy" price. During the evening, the Anima Guzzista staff will share a report on the past year and unveil a sneak peek of the 2026 event calendar. Of course, the "Anima Guzzista e Bicilindrica" award ceremony will be held, along with live music from the band "Influx" (aka Cris e i Berghem), complete with "subtitles for the non-Orobici [non-Bergamo natives]."

For those traveling from afar who want to fully embrace the spartan spirit, there's fantastic news this year: the option to camp indoors with your own tent in the sports hall, based on a free-will donation. The Uinterparti is confirmed not just as a dinner, but as the warmest moment to celebrate the Guzzi passion.

What is the Anima Guzzista Uinterparti?

The Uinterparti (a playful name for "Winter Party") is one of the most heartfelt and traditional events organized by the historic Guzzista association and community.

It is known for its playful and deeply community-oriented spirit. This is not a classic motorcycle road rally, but a true convivial gathering that typically takes place in the middle of winter.

Here are its key elements:

• Location: It is almost always held in Mandello del Lario, the homeland of Moto Guzzi, defined by the organizers as "the only acceptable place" for such an event. The venue is often the Mandello Polisportiva.
• Format: The heart of the event is a large social dinner. Participants gather for an evening of companionship with a set menu, combining the passion for Guzzi with the pleasure of being together.
• Atmosphere: The atmosphere is everything. It's an opportunity to "count the ranks," meet up after the winter break, joke around, and strengthen community bonds. The name "Esimo Uinterparti" (as in, the "nth" Uinterparti) ironically highlights the fact that they've lost count of the editions.
• Entertainment: The dinner is almost always accompanied by live music (often with "resident" community artists like Enrico Santacatterina) and, in some editions, by the presentation of symbolic awards, like the "Premio Anima Guzzista - Bicilindrica."

In summary, the Uinterparti is not an event for "seeing bikes," but for meeting people: it is the winter festival of the "Anima Guzzista family," celebrated in Mandello with a focus on conviviality, food, and music.
