At 9 a.m. on 8 May 2013, the 350 cars taking part in the Lamborghini 50th Anniversary Grand Tour started their engines in Milan and set off for Forte dei Marmi, one of the most exclusive resorts on Italy’s Tyrrhenian coast.
The convoy covered 270 km through the Aveto Natural Regional Park and the Trebbia River valley, stopping for lunch at the Saint Columbanus Monastery in Bobbio.
In Forte dei Marmi the supercars parked in Piazza Marconi, in the heart of the town, drawing admiring looks from residents and holidaymakers.
In the evening, the Capannina di Franceschi club opened its doors to the 700 participants of the Grand Tour for a night recalling the Italian 1960s.
The Grand Tour is the centrepiece of Lamborghini’s 50th anniversary celebrations, with the crews covering 1,200 km across Italy from 7 to 11 May.
