Vesparaduno di Calosso
Calosso's yearly Vespa rally on a Sunday in June: riders sign in on Piazza Sant'Alessandro for breakfast, ride out on a scenic loop through the vineyard hills with an aperitivo at a farmstead, and finish with lunch in the village.
Why it's special
A line of Vespas setting off together through the Moscato and Barbera hills is a good sight even if you don't ride one. Prizes go to the youngest and oldest riders, the one who came furthest and the best-represented Vespa club.

The Pro Loco di Calosso has been running its Vespa rally for a quarter of a century. Riders gather on Piazza Sant'Alessandro on a Sunday morning in June, sign in, collect a gadget and have breakfast before setting off on a panoramic ride through the vineyards of the Langhe and Monferrato hills. There's a stop for an aperitivo at a farmstead on the way, and the day ends with lunch at Il Duca Bianco in the village.
The rally is open to any Vespa owner, and clubs come in groups. There are prizes for the youngest and oldest riders, the one who travelled furthest and the club with the most riders. If you're not riding, come to the piazza in the morning to see the scooters before they leave. See what else is on in Calosso.
