Bugatti’s century of automotive excellence is celebrated in Sicily.
Much of Bugatti’s history, which dates back over a hundred years, includes incredible motorsport triumphs and an unshakeable legacy of racing success. Specifically, it was on the island of Sicily where Bugatti delivered record-setting performance at the revered Targa Florio race, winning it with its groundbreaking Type 35 five years in a row between 1925 and 1929. When the last Targa Florio race was run in 1977, Bugatti’s record of five consecutive Targa Florio wins remained undefeated.
To honor that incredible legacy and Sicily’s importance to Bugatti’s history, Bugatti brought its International Bugatti Meeting to the Mediterranean island. The multi-day tour brought historic Bugatti cars on a trip covering over 600 miles, with beautiful backdrops including historical towns, stunning coastal landscapes, and the volcanic scenes of Mount Etna.
The experience also included activities that celebrated Sicily’s rich culture and history, including wine, architecture, and Ancient Greek theater. Celebrating Bugatti’s rich history and heritage, its relation to the beautiful island of Sicily, and the incredible history of the island itself, the International Bugatti Meeting this year was an event to remember.
