About Festa de Mutòr
A festival born from a passion for engines
The Festa de Mutòr takes place in Pezzolo, a small hamlet in the Municipality of Russi, in the province of Ravenna, in the heart of the Romagna plain between Faenza, Lugo, and Ravenna. Organized by the Circolo ANSPI Santa Maria thanks to the work of numerous volunteers, the event is traditionally held in June and celebrates the passion for engines on two, three, and four wheels. Founded around the year 2000, it has become one of the most anticipated events in the Romagna festival calendar over the years.
Engines take center stage
The heart of the festival is dedicated to engine shows and gatherings. Over the four days, there will be off-road motorcycle exhibitions, Tractor Pulling competitions valid for the Italian Championship in the dedicated Pulling Arena, Fast Pulling trials, the spectacular Tractor Gymkhana, and numerous gatherings that attract enthusiasts from all over the region, from the legendary 50cc two-strokes to Ducati motorcycles.
Live music every evening
Each evening of the Festa de Mutòr is accompanied by concerts and live music, with tribute bands and cover groups ranging from rock to 80s hits, followed by evenings with DJ sets. The square comes alive until late at night in a popular festive atmosphere suitable for all ages.
Romagnola cuisine
There is also a food stand, open throughout the event, where you can taste the typical dishes of the Romagna tradition prepared by local volunteers: from homemade pasta to grilled meats, accompanied by the authentic wines and flavors of this land.
A local event
The Festa de Mutòr is much more than an engine gathering: it is an occasion for the community of Pezzolo and the entire Municipality of Russi to come together, uniting different generations around mechanical passion, music, and good food. An authentic Emilia-Romagna event that showcases the welcoming and festive spirit of Romagna.
