Southern Piedmont, a land shaped by great cycling: the province of Alessandria prepares to welcome the Giro d'Italia 2026

For the 2026 Giro d'Italia, the province of Alessandria is transformed into a vast, sprawling stage, uniting sport, culture, and the region into a single, shared narrative. A rich and varied calendar of events accompanies residents and visitors on a journey through traditions, landscapes, and passions, all centered on cycling and the values it embodies.

From sporting initiatives to cultural events, from family activities to food and wine events, each event contributes to creating an engaging and participatory atmosphere, where the "pink" of the Giro d'Italia becomes a symbol of community, energy, and local identity. A journey that begins well before the race passes through and continues beyond, showcasing the entire region and its excellence.

The province of Alessandria is thus preparing to host one of the most followed sporting competitions in the world, transforming every square, street, and iconic location into an integral part of a collective experience filled with emotion, encounters, and sharing.
