BRESCIA READIES FOR 2024 MILLE MIGLIA

BRESCIA READIES FOR 2024 MILLE MIGLIA

The 2024 itinerary of the mythical Mille Miglia race was presented recently in Brescia (Lombardy), where the very first edition was held in 1927. The five-day historic car race is an eagerly-awaited event exclusive to motor cars built before 1957 that have participated in at least one race between 1927 and 1957. The event was banned in 1938 for a twenty-year interval after several spectators were killed in a crash during the race.

The 42nd edition of the “Thousand Mile” itinerary between Brescia-Rome and back is divided into five-day stages and touches many cities in north and central Italy. This year's itinerary includes Genoa for the first time and follows an anti-clockwork route through seven Italian regions between the 11th - 15th June 2024. 400 cars have already signed up to compete. The Mille Miglia race was launched in Brescia and the town continues to be strongly identified with the event. Brescia also has a dedicated Museum, situated inside the converted medieval Monastery of Sant'Eufemia della Fonte at the town gate.
