The Grande Arrivo of the Giro d’Italia 106 is approaching and Rome is ready to welcome it in the best possible way, with many collateral initiatives that will involve the people of the Capital, including tourists and fans who will assist the final act of the Corsa Rosa.
GIRO D’ITALIA – FAMILY RIDE
The Giro d’Italia – Family Ride is a free event open to the whole family, adults and children, who want to spend a day of sport cycling through the streets of the centre of one of the most beautiful cities in the world. The event, with already more than 3500 subscribers, is organised by Roma Capitale and RCS Sports & Events, in partnership with Decathlon, will take place on Sunday 28 May, at the Grande Arrivo.
The non-competitive ride will start at 9.45 am from the pink arch of the Giro d’Italia positioned in Via dei Fori Imperiali, at the same point where the arrival is scheduled after a 6.8 kilometre route entirely closed to traffic through the city streets of the capital.
Decathlon, the event’s technical partner, will offer a pink t-shirt to all participants, who will be able to wear it together with the bib to be collected on Friday 26th and Saturday 27th at the Decathlon store in via Appia Nuova (Metro Furio Camillo of Line A).

Besides Giroland, Rome will also welcome the Giro-E, whose arrival is scheduled for 3pm, and its Green Fun Village, full of stands dedicated to the world of sustainability. The Green Fun Village will be set up in Lungotevere Castello near Castel Sant’Angelo from 10am on Sunday 28 May.
