“Riccione is a very welcoming city that pays attention to solidarity and social issues.” The actor Luca Argentero (in the photo) says so, expected at the Riccione conference center on 3 June for the 17th edition of the Fundraising Festival. He talks about it in the insert of Resto del Carlino Vivere Riccione, on newsstands tomorrow. In this issue, readers will be offered a journey through sport, art, amarcord, but also small businesses, culture and VIPs.
The cover is dedicated to the Giro d’Italia. Riccione is the city from which the 13th stage arriving in Cento will start on Friday 17 May: it is the only one scheduled in Emilia Romagna. It will be dedicated to Ercole Baldini, a great champion who recently passed away. The stage for the event will be Piazzale Roma, where the pink village overlooking the sea is planned: the teams will be presented here from 11am. The caravan will cross the heart of the city until the race starts on the Marano river bridge at 1pm. Still on the subject of sport, a report will be dedicated to Mattia Drudi, a car driver who races in Gran Turismo. After competing for Audi, this year he became an official driver for the British brand Aston Martin.
There will also be a focus on the world of small business with Sandro Valentini, employed in IT, and his daughter Marta, visual designer, who, having formed a small company, have opened a company that produces original handcrafted lamps. Vivere Riccione also overlooks the sea and with the testimony of the lifeguard Massimo Morri, who served beach 92 for 40 years, remembers bathers and VIPs who once crowded the Savioli Spiaggia hotel, to then enjoy the sun relaxing on the beach. Finally, we dive into the adventures and mysteries told in the novel La via delle notti glintinti by Patricia Carabellese, and then move on to the news of the PalaRiccione and the curiosities of the Vivian Maier exhibition currently underway at Villa Mussolini.
