About Gran Pedalata

Once a year, the centre of Concorezzo becomes a race circuit, but with no engines: the stars are the 'ciclocarrette', funny pedal-powered go-karts built with ingenuity and imagination. The Gran Pedalata is a non-competitive, festive race that fills the town's streets with wheels, laughter, and cheering, involving teams, families, and onlookers in one of the most cheerful days of Concorezzo's September. Organised by CASC with the patronage of the Municipality, it's a light-hearted event that's part of the local Brianza tradition.

When the town centre becomes a pedal-powered 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.

A light-hearted race for everyone

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.

CASC and the town festival

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.

A classic of Concorezzo's September

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.

Gran Pedalata — edition 2026

The Gran Pedalata returns to Concorezzo in September 2026: a day of cycle-carts and pedal-powered go-karts transforming the town centre into a fun circuit, organised by CASC with the patronage of the Municipality, coinciding with the Grape and Wine Festival.

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.
