The “Historical Passions” rally which took place on Sunday 16 June saw the cars that made history in the 60s and 70s parade. The vintage cars, those that have made many automotive brands great, passed through Isernia for a day full of passion for this sector and for the tourism promotion of the Molise region. The event was sponsored by the Municipality of Isernia, the Municipality of Venafro, the province of Isernia and the culture department of the Molise Region. A project that managed to bring together vintage car enthusiasts from Campania, Lazio, Puglia and Molise, organized by the “Pista Paradiso” Kartodromo of Santa Maria del Molise and wanted by the “San Nicandro” Festival Committee of Venafro for the start of the celebrations in the city. There are four stages of the event: the first appointment in Venafro, with a stop on the central Corso Campano, accompanied by the group of flag-wavers and the musical band in Baroque style clothes, with the ribbon cutting by the mayor Alfredo Ricci. Then the cars stopped in Isernia, on Corso Garibaldi where the mayor Pietro Castrataro and the president of the Province of Isernia, Daniele Saia, welcomed the participants together with a large audience of children and families. Subsequently the procession moved to the Basilica of Castelpetroso and then to the Santa Maria del Molise circuit for lunch and the awarding of four special prizes to the participants.
