Moto Guzzi 105th anniversary and facility inauguration

Overview

Mandello del Lario hosted the Moto Guzzi World Days from September 3 to 6, 2026, to mark the 105th anniversary of the motorcycle manufacturer. The event coincided with the official opening of a new industrial and museum complex designed to serve as a landmark for the brand’s future. As part of the celebrations, the Piaggio Group-owned manufacturer unveiled its renovated headquarters near Lake Como. This expansion, which took five years and cost over 50 million euros, includes 5,500 square meters of new factory space and a dedicated museum to honor the brand’s history. Designed by architect Greg Lynn, the 3,000-square-meter museum houses 160 motorcycles. The high-tech facility allows visitors to observe the artisanal hand-assembly process maintained at the site where manufacturing has occurred since 1921.

The festivities drew between 30,000 and 60,000 enthusiasts from around the world. A major highlight on September 5 was a large-scale parade featuring a procession of 1,500 motorcycles, ranging from modern models to rare vintage machines, led by the Corazzieri. The event included participation from MotoGP riders such as Marco Bezzecchi and Jorge Martin, as well as racing legend Max Biaggi.

To commemorate the milestone, the brand launched a limited ‘105th Anniversary Edition’ series across five models: the Stelvio, Stelvio PFF Rider Assistance Solution, V100 Mandello, V85 Strada, and V7 Stone. These special editions feature a pearlescent grey finish with yellow accents inspired by the new industrial architecture. Design updates include a ‘105’ graphic on the fuel tank and rear wheel rims, replacing the traditional eagle symbol, along with specialized seats featuring yellow stitching. Production of these limited editions is scheduled to run from October 2026 through the end of 2027.
