July 4 has a special significance: it marks the exact day when, a century ago, the extraordinary story of the Borgo Panigale-based manufacturer began. To bring it all to life, preparations are already in full swing at Borgo Panigale: three intense days, meticulously planned to enable you to enjoy this incredible celebration to the full. Year after year, the WDW evolves, enriching its content, experiences and spectacular character, establishing itself as a benchmark on the world motorcycle scene.
