Fratta Grand Prix – Pedal Car Trophy
The spectacular pedal car race in the historic center of Umbertide
About Fratta Grand Prix
A Grand Prix All on Pedals
The Fratta Grand Prix Trophy is the most fun challenge of the year in Umbertide: teams aboard self-built and decorated pedal cars compete for the trophy along a circuit set up in the streets and squares of the historic center of the town, in the province of Perugia. Speed, humor, and imagination mix in a race that draws a large crowd to the sides of the track.
From Fun to Social Value
Born a few years ago as a recreational initiative, the event has grown to become an appointment of strong community and social value, recognized and sponsored by the Municipality of Umbertide. It is organized by the Fratta Grand Prix Association (chaired by Simona Baldi) together with the Don Chisciotte Association, with the aim of strengthening community ties and enlivening the city center.
A Race for the Little Ones Too
The big news of recent editions is the Kids' Grand Prix, dedicated to children aged 7 to 12, which officially opens the trophy day. The entire proceeds of the initiative are donated to the Daniele Chianelli Committee for Life, a historic local organization committed to supporting children and adults suffering from leukemia, tumors, and thalassemia. Spectacle and solidarity go hand in hand.
Fratta Grand Prix — edition 2026
The fourth edition of the Fratta Grand Prix Trophy confirms the spectacular formula of pedal cars in the historic center of Umbertide and introduces an important novelty dedicated to the little ones. The initiative, sponsored by the Municipality for its strong community and social value, is organized by the Fratta Grand Prix and Don Chisciotte associations.
