Florence, Palazzo Vecchio after D&G will close again: there's the Ferrari dinner

In Florence, Palazzo Vecchio will again close its doors to the public next week for two more days, namely Friday, Sept. 11 and Saturday, Sept. 12, to coincide with Ferrari’s 1,000 Formula 1 Grand Prix celebrations. On Sept. 13, in fact, the Mugello racetrack will host one of the grand prix of the 2020 world championship, and at the event Ferrari will celebrate in Florence. The City Council explains that it will be a “two-day celebration to tell the story of the racing team, and the car manufacturer, which has become a symbol of Italian style all over the world.”

Theater of the events will be Piazza della Signoria (where preparations for the preparations, which will last a week, have already begun yesterday) and Palazzo Vecchio: in the square there will be an exhibition of Ferrari cars that will tell the story of 70 years of grand prix, including a show-car with celebratory livery of the 1000 Gp (it will then be auctioned by Sotheby’s and the proceeds will be donated to the City of Florence for charity). Then on Saturday evening there will be a video mapping show with projections on the facade of Palazzo Vecchio. Ferrari guests will watch the event from a specially set up area near the Arengario of Palazzo Vecchio, while everyone else (citizens and tourists) will be able to see the projections from the square, subject to the spacing rules for Covid-19. There will also be big screens to better appreciate the show.

After that, Ferrari guests will gather inside Palazzo Vecchio for dinner in the Salone dei Cinquecento. And, as mentioned, Palazzo Vecchio will be closed to the public for two days (so informs the official website, reporting the closure for “institutional reasons”).
