Get ready to step back in time as we explore Perugia during one of its most charming and nostalgic celebrations—the Coppa della Perugina. Join us for a virtual walking tour that blends vintage elegance, racing history, and the irresistible allure of chocolate.

In the roaring 1920s, Giovanni Buitoni—visionary entrepreneur and owner of the iconic confectionery company La Perugina—created this international car race to promote both his company and his beloved hometown. The Coppa della Perugina quickly became a glamorous meeting point for car lovers, socialites, and speed enthusiasts from across Europe.

Today, the spirit of the race lives on as a re-evocative event reserved for historic cars built before 1965. On our virtual tour, you’ll stroll down Corso Vannucci, where splendid vintage cars parade in style, engines humming like echoes from the past. We’ll take you through the city’s historic heart, pointing out elegant palazzi, vibrant piazzas, and hidden corners alive with stories. Along the way, we’ll dive into the legacy of the Coppa, learn how Perugina became a symbol of Italian sweetness, and of course, stop for a moment to talk about chocolate—the true co-star of the show!

Join us and experience the elegance, energy, and flavor of Perugia during the Coppa della Perugina—from wherever you are in the world.
