Music, engines, and solidarity in Viadana

Save the Bobby is one of the most heartfelt events in the Municipality of Viadana, in the Province of Mantua: a non-profit festival that for years has combined music, engines, and inclusion. It takes place at the Arena Spettacoli and in Parco Baden Powell on via Al Ponte.

Concerts and motorcycle rally

The program alternates live concerts, with bands performing original songs, with the motorcycle rally which attracts around three hundred motorcyclists each year. Alongside the music and engines, the event offers a children's area with workshops and games, and stands from local volunteer associations.

A celebration of inclusion

Save the Bobby was created in memory of Roberto "Bobby" Gozzi and Gianluigi "Nino" Baroni and its keywords are music, conviviality, and inclusion. Over the years, the event has donated over 230,000 euros to various local associations, confirming itself as a symbol of solidarity in Viadana.
