Italy has always been a country offering good taste at the table. So together let's cook a super tasty recipe that tells the story of an unmissable corner of the country, famous as a tourist destination: Romagna.

Let’s put together a beautiful mosaic medal made by hand, tile after tile, unique in the world and always different each year for 14 years now.

Let’s add eight monuments and early Christian sites included by UNESCO among the World Heritage Sites. The historical greatness of a city that was the capital three times: first of the Western Roman Empire, then of the Kingdom of the Ostrogoths, and finally of the Byzantine Exarchate. Each site is imbued with a splendid mosaic of reflections, colours and suggestions.

Let’s not forget a pinch of poetry with the tomb of Dante Alighieri who finished writing his Divine Comedy in Ravenna and who now rests in the Zone of Silence as an eternal symbol of culture and history. We then mix it with the entrances, combined with the bib, free or at a discounted price in many monuments of the city.

Let’s add the innovation of a tourist area always on the wave. And let’s not forget to combine everything with the warmth and hospitality of an area also famous in the world for its beaches.

We simmer until next 9 November, a perfect time to run together on the streets, and we will have an appointment not to be missed for all the gourmet runners of the world: Ravenna Marathon City of Art 2025.

A 42.2km route between art and history; a Marathon that represents a journey into history and culture. And a very fast Half Marathon, perfect for new records to be achieved while running along streets that offer glimpses of culture and charm. Finally, a 10 km that represents an authentic celebration of sport and friendship.

Don’t forget to taste this dish amidst the applause of many people crowded along the streets and the music of the bands scattered along the route for a rhythm to live step by step.

We are waiting for you for an event that you will not forget.
