Alfa Romeo heritage celebrations and exhibitions

Overview

Various initiatives in Italy and the United States have been organized to commemorate the history and industrial legacy of Alfa Romeo. In San Francisco, the Consulate General of Italy hosted an event to honor the brand’s century-long history, tracing its origins from its 1910 founding in Milan to its evolution as a symbol of Italian automotive performance. This history includes significant racing milestones, such as winning the first World Constructors' Championship in 1925 and Formula 1 driver titles in 1950 and 1951. The brand also played a foundational role in the history of Ferrari, as Enzo Ferrari founded Scuderia Ferrari in 1929 to compete using Alfa Romeo vehicles. Simultaneously, the Alfa Romeo Museum in Arese, Italy, has been revitalized into a modern brand center featuring a showroom, documentation center, and a test track for historic vehicles. In Milan, the Centro Filippo Buonarroti organized an exhibition at Piazza Portello from October 19 to November 1, 2026, to mark the brand’s 120th anniversary and the 40th anniversary of its Milanese factory closure. This exhibition focuses on the social history of the brand, including assembly lines and labor documents. Further commemorations include the inauguration of the ‘Museo Officina’ area at the Museo Fratelli Cozzi in Legnano, which highlights artisanal vehicle restoration and mechanical maintenance. Alfa Romeo is also strengthening its connection to motorsport history through a partnership with Scuderia del Portello, the brand's official historic racing team since 1982. This partnership features the ‘Museo Dinamico Alfa Romeo storiche da competizione’ and the ‘Casa Alfa Romeo’ at the Monza and Misano circuits. During the ACI Racing Weekend at Monza, which drew over 30,000 spectators, historic models achieved significant success, including three podium finishes in the Giulietta TI class and two for the 2000 GT Veloce.
