DONATE AN EXPERIENCE!
Welcome to Reggio Emilia - Something Different! A city to experience slowly and with curiosity.
With the Reggio Emilia Welcome vouchers, you are not just donating an experience, but a true invitation to discover the heart and soul of an authentic city still built for people, rich in history, tradition, and unique flavours.
Each voucher is an invitation to stroll along the ancient Via Emilia, through historic buildings and squares, to discover art and nature, or to immerse yourself in the flavours and aromas of the local food and wine scene. Whether it is a guided tour to explore the history of the "City of the Tricolour Flag" or a visit to a local production facility to learn more about the area’s DOP and DOC products, the voucher allows you to gift a special moment to every visitor.
