Cycle-carts and pedal-powered go-karts transform the town centre into a fun circuit
The Gran Pedalata is one of the most characteristic and fun events in Concorezzo, in the Province of Monza and Brianza. For an entire day in September, the town centre, along Via Libertà, transforms into a real circuit where 'ciclocarrette' whizz by: pedal-powered go-karts, often handmade and decorated with imagination by the participating teams.
The format is a non-competitive race, designed for fun rather than the stopwatch. The 'ciclocarrette' chase each other through the town centre streets for hours, from morning till evening, in a festive atmosphere of cheering, team spirit, and great joy. It's one of those events that showcases the genuine soul of the towns in the Brianza region, where popular creativity becomes street theatre.
The Gran Pedalata is organised by CASC Concorezzo, with the patronage of the Municipality. The event is part of Concorezzo's rich September calendar and is traditionally linked to the Grape and Wine Festival, helping to make this month one of the liveliest in the entire local calendar.
Together with the Fish Festival, the Büss Festival, and the Grape and Wine Festival, the Gran Pedalata forms the mosaic of events that animate Concorezzo at the end of summer, ideally closing the long 'Concorezzo d'Estate' (Summer in Concorezzo) season with a day dedicated to smiles.
In 2026, CASC Concorezzo will once again host the Gran Pedalata, the non-competitive cycle-cart race that animates the town centre along Via Libertà. The day, linked to the Grape and Wine Festival, reaffirms the light-hearted format that has made the event famous. The exact date will be confirmed by the organisers in the weeks prior.
The day takes place in the historic centre, along Via Libertà, featuring:
