Three days of Italian lifestyle, wellness and gastronomy in the wonderful setting of the Ligurian Riviera.
The event is held in Alassio and Garlenda, two beautiful locations in the wonderful setting of the Ligurian Riviera. Alassio and Garlenda are midway between Genoa and Monaco, not far from Imperia, and can be reached easily from the A10 motorway, Albenga exit. Our organisation will provide you with personalized directions based on which hotel you will be staying in. Hotels are assigned by the event organisers, depending on the sport and/or spa activities chosen by our guests.
Located in the heart of town, right by the sea, and a few steps away from the “Budello” (shopping and pedestrian walk) and the famous “Muretto”, the Grand Hotel Alassio after a scrupulous refurbishment following 30 years closure, re-opened at the end of 2010, with its original elegance adapted to modern day needs.
61 rooms and suites where you will be a privileged guest in a unique style: simple, modern and elegant.

Indulge your body and soul at Thalassio SPA. Exclusive thalasso treatments, massages, beauty programs, the use of the sauna, herbal and Hammam bath, thalasso pool with Kneipp and chromo therapy circuit are available for a complete remise en forme.
Hanbury Tennis Club is located in a still, green and tranquil corner of Alassio, in the centre of the “Baia del Sole”.
Founded by Danile Hanbury in 1923, the twelve thousand square metres of green surround 7 championship tennis courts and the elegant colonial style clubhouse, which stands under a sea of pine trees and original palm groves.
The ancient stone walls are framed in roses and geraniums, which are constantly in bloom as the sun beats against whitewashed walls reflecting the red colours of the tennis courts. Set against a green hill above the town, the tennis club is an oasis of sun and tranquillity with an atmosphere that can only come from a magical place that has remained intact and unchanged for so long.
Half way between Monte Carlo and Portofino, overlooking a stunning 18 hole championship Golf Course is one of the most charming retreats on the Italian Riviera and the only Relais in the Liguria region.
The beautiful Albergo La Meridiana combines quaint surroundings with warm hospitality and stylish decors, creating an ideal environment in which to relax, be pampered and enjoy the splendours of Italy.
Part of the exclusive Relais & Châteaux collection from 1979, the hotel boasts 27 elegant rooms and suites, a delightful outdoor pool surrounded by beautiful gardens and two gourmet restaurants specialized in Ligurian cuisine.
Another special feature of La Meridiana is the Wine Cellar where owner, Edmondo Segre, keeps an outstanding collection of wines. There are various wine tastings available for those passionate wine guests as well.
Located in one of the most splendid parks in Italy, Villa della Pergola is an elegant late 19th century architectural masterpiece with 13 suites overlooking the enchanting Gulf of Alassio.
Consisting of three elegant buildings – the Villa, the Villino and Casa del Sole, Villa della Pergola is harmoniously set within the slopes of the hills above Alassio.
The complex is surrounded by a luxuriant garden that blends Mediterranean vegetation with various types of rare plants and fabulous exotic flora. It boasts a unique history intertwined with that of the British community who chose this corner of the Riviera as a favourite winter resort destination throughout the 19th century.
The two refurbished late 19th century villas, faithfully preserved and restored under architect Ettore Mocchetti, authentically replicate the lay out of British residences from the Victorian period in India and Malaysia, bringing to life the elegant taste and atmosphere of the fin de siècle through meticulously studied furniture and a fine collection of watercolours and Victorian and Edwardian paintings.
This brand new exciting drift kart track opened in Albenga in 2017.
The new track in Albenga has special electric drift karts, with zero emissions and amazing acceleration. The US made 30 cv electrical engines reach their maximum potential almost immediately, guaranteeing the drifting effect, favoured by the specially smoothed floor.
Next to the race track is a special museum which has a collection of Go Karts and historical helmets which takes you from the future of karting with its electrical propulsion to the past with two-stroke engines, including rare exhibits from all over the world.
Our golf tournament will take place at the enchanting Garlenda Golf Club.
Garlenda Golf Club was founded in 1964 by two British designers John Morrison and John Harris.
The proximity to tourist resorts of great historical interest as Alassio and Albenga as well as with other places of Cote d’Azur make Garlenda an ideal place for a pleasant stay combining golf with other entertainment.
The Club is situated in the Lerrone valley, which is one of the most beautiful and picturesque valleys of the Ligurian hinterland, surrounded by ancient olive groves and pine forests.
The golf course is 6.085mt long SR 133 and CR 72.0 for men, SR 130 and CR 73.6 for women.
