The Automezzi celebrates it 30th Anniversary in 2020 as the largest showcase of Italian exotics in the Rocky Mountain region, however; this year has its challenges with the state restrictions around large gatherings. In order to celebrate our 30-year anniversary, continue raising funds for a local non-profit and now comply with Covid-19 guidelines, we have reformatted the Automezzi (for this year only) in the spirit of a long standing cultural tradition in Italy called la Passeggiata. La Passeggiata typically happens at the end of the day in Italy and lasts several hours. The Automezzi Passeggiata Live Broadcast Event will begin at the same time here in Colorado as la Passeggiata is taking place in Rome, Italy; which is 10am MST. La Passeggiata (known as the walk, stroll, promenade) is often the main social event of the day in Italy where the most important thing is simply seeing and being seen (vedere e farsi vedere). La Passeggiata will reinforce a sense of belonging, the greeting of friends and acquaintances, sharing of the latest news, products and services and most importantly showcasing those shining Italian exotics. It’s our way of connecting everyone in the Italian Car & Motorcycle community, for this moment in time, in a virtual rally showcase (designed within social distancing guidelines) that will be broadcast live to our virtual spectators who can watch the event for FREE! The Automezzi virtual spectator can help pick the "People's Choice" winners by tagging a favorite vehicle every time they donate to Caruso Family Charities leading up to or during the live broadcast (vote for all your favorites so they have a chance of winning). For every dollar donated, that vehicle will recieve one point. The top 3 vehicles with the most points, who raise the most funds for CFC; will be awarded the People's Choice medals of honor so vote often and DONATE BIG to help both your favorite vehicles and Caruso Family Charities win! The first 100 donors over $75 (with or without tagging a vehicle) will receive a commemorative Automezzi XXX bandana as a thank you gift.

Online registration (for Italian marques only) is open and only advanced registrants will be accepted. DUE TO THE FORMAT THIS YEAR THERE WILL BE NO REGISTRATION FOR VEHICLES ON SITE ON THE EVENT DAY.

For 30 years the Automezzi has been known as the largest gathering of exotic Italian cars and motorcycles (vintage to current) in the Rocky Mountain region. Past displays have included a rare, vintage 1913 Fiat, a 1939 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Berlinetta Touring said to once be owned by Mussolini; alongside the current year's top selling marques. Other "two wheeled" participants have included Italian scooters and Italian bicycles alongside rare and vintage motorcycles. The Automezzi showcase is typically 100-150 Italian exotics from the marques shown plus a few surprise guest exotics. For the 2020 event, the marques will be judged by People's Choice from the online virtual spectators. For every dollar donated to Caruso Family Charities, the vehicle tagged with the donation will receive one point. Awards will be presented to the Top 3 vehicles who raise the most money for the charity. The coveted Director's Cup, which is a traveling award, will be selected by the previous year's recipient and the Show Director and awarded after the event to the winner. All winners will be announced after the event with the donation totals. Due to the la Passeggiata format in 2020, spectators can vote for unlimited favorites (because you will have LOTS of favorites!) in the People's Choice category by donating often or donating big and tagging your favorites.

A heartfelt "Thank You" goes out to the many partners and sponsors over the years whose continued support helps us in presenting the Automezzi. With their generous support we are able to produce the Automezzi, the largest Celebration of Italian Motoring in the Rocky Mountain Region. Sponsorship also allows us to support our benefactor Caruso Family Charities, in a more substantial way. The Automezzi community as a whole is a very generous group of car enthusiasts that are also supporting the event with each exhibitor booth sold, vehicle registration and individual donation given. We are very excited to be partnering with Caruso Family Charities in 2020 and welcome their families to our Automezzi family. We hope you will join us as a partner or sponsor to make our 30th Anniversary the most successful Automezzi yet! Mille grazie!
