In the month of May the passage of the Millemiglia is relived. The Mille Miglia was a long-distance road car competition held in Italy in 24 editions between 1927 and 1957. It was a road race with start and finish in Brescia in which the competitors reached Rome through central-northern Italy. The name of the race derives from the length of the route; in fact, despite several variations over the years, it remained approximately 1600 kilometers long, equivalent to approximately one thousand imperial miles.
Since 1977, the Mille Miglia has been revived in the form of a historical regularity race in stages whose participation is limited to cars, produced before 1957, which had participated (or were registered) in the original race. The Brescia-Rome-Brescia route follows, despite its variations, that of the original race, maintaining the starting/arrival point constant in Viale Venezia at the level of the Rebuffone gardens.
