Vivilosport Mugello
Tuscany's largest sports festival in Borgo San Lorenzo
About Vivilosport Mugello
Four days of sport in the heart of Mugello
Every year, Borgo San Lorenzo, the main town in the Mugello area near Florence, turns into the Tuscan capital of sport with Vivilosport Mugello. Established in 1993 and now a benchmark for the entire Tuscany region, the event fills the Foro Boario and surrounding areas with over 300 activities spread across four days, running from early morning until midnight.
A metropolitan sports festival
Recognized as a Metropolitan Sports Festival, Vivilosport involves over 110 sports clubs and federations, hundreds of coaches and volunteers, and thousands of young athletes. Exhibitions, open training sessions, tournaments, and free trials allow the public of all ages to discover dozens of disciplines for free: from team sports like basketball, volleyball, and handball to martial arts and judo, gymnastics, dance, archery, chess, cycling, kayaking, and car and motorcycle rallies.
Sport, inclusion, and safety
Beyond the competitive side, the event dedicates significant space to inclusion and the promotion of a healthy lifestyle. Courses on using defibrillators are provided, along with activities promoted by the local health authority (ASL) regarding assisted physical activity and addiction prevention, plus the presence of the Traffic Police with safety awareness campaigns. There are also moments designed for the little ones, such as Bimbimbici, a family bike ride along the local roads and cycle paths.
An event for the whole community
Promoted by the Municipality of Borgo San Lorenzo together with the Vivilosport association, with the support of the Union of Mugello Municipalities and the Health Society, the event attracts participants from all over Tuscany. Vivilosport is not just a showcase for local sports clubs, but an opportunity to experience sport in every aspect, discover new disciplines, and spend four days with the family dedicated to movement, fun, and social interaction in the hilly landscape of Mugello.
