An exclusive event presented by La Marzocco, Guilty76, Massif Central and Cycling Magazine.
Tour de France, the second biggest sporting event after the Olympics, started for the first time in history from Florence, Italy, last weekend. The city has filled with people from all over the world, pouring into the Tuscan capital to assist this extraordinary event.
Accademia del Caffè Espresso, founded in 2019 by La Marzocco, is a destination made to preserve and promote the culture of espresso coffee, elevating its knowledge and relevance on a global scale. Located in a beautiful, green surrounding, the Accademia offers unique experiences for coffee lovers, with exhibition spaces, workshops, and tasting areas where visitors can fully immerse themselves in the world of coffee. Thanks to the passion and dedication of La Marzocco, it has become an international reference point for coffee culture.
For this reason, Accademia has been chosen to host an exclusive event on Friday, June 28th, 2024, just before the big race kicks off. It was a unique moment to celebrate the cycling industry and the shared passion for coffee, offering an opportunity for networking and enjoying an aperitivo in an intimate and elegant environment. This event not only celebrated the world of cycling, but also the art of coffee, bringing together two passions that cross cultures and continents.
The event was attended by a select and prestigious crowd of influential personalities from the cycling world. The event was a unique and unforgettable opportunity to gather in an authentic atmosphere, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, which was gearing up for the imminent start of the race the following day.
