Rolling out the red carpet for this special occasion of Festa Italiana, the Automobile Gallery and Events Center is getting ready to display a stunning variety of unusual Italian vehicles. The 3rd annual Festa Italiana will be held from 2 to 6 p.m. this Saturday at 400 S. Adams Street in Green Bay.
Darrel Burnett, the director of curation and preservation at The Automobile Gallery & Events Center said, “We have assembled the finest Italian vehicles in the world. And I can say that because right behind me, I have seven one-of-ones that are worth an excess of $70 million. We’re going to have over $100 million worth of Italian vehicles.”
These cars perfectly reflect the most beautiful, priceless, and outstanding vehicles ever produced. It resembles having a Monet next to a Rembrandt and a Michelangelo, Burnett commented. Coming from many places across the United States as well as from foreign countries, the cars are arriving.
There will be plenty of cars on display, and one of them will be the Ferrari 212, which was purchased by the Argentine president, Juan Perón, in the year 1952. Besides this, the first Ferrari 342 which has ever been produced is just one out of the six that existed.
Burnett noted that the nonprofit organisation, The Automobile Gallery and Events Center devoted the whole year to buying these cars for the show. The purchase was in the hope of providing the neighbourhood with a singular experience.
Burnett added that they have successfully developed a festival that has the ability to compete with any event at any level, and right now it is happening at Green Bay. In his statement, he also included, “For those who attended Festa Italiana last year, there will be a totally fresh collection of cars not seen a year earlier.” Along with the vehicles, the event will highlight and offer Italian food, desserts, and music to the visitors, fitting the theme.
