From Saturday 9 to Tuesday 12 September in Piazza Gae Aulenti, Portanuova, Esselunga invites you to ‘Il Villaggio degli Azzurri’ (The Village of the Azzurri): a large recreational and interactive fan zone hosting a specific Radio Italia broadcast by Sergio La Bruna and DJ Paoletta and the projection of the Italian National Football Team’s games on a big screen.
At the Village, a space will be allocated to the most iconic objects in the history of the national team, including the UEFA Euro 2020 Cup won by the Azzurri, to re-live the most important moments in Italian football history and give visitors the chance to take a souvenir photo.
Their offer will also be full of surprises, like the ‘shopping cart football’ game – where anyone can take on the challenge of kicking a football into a real shopping kart – but even a gazebo strictly dedicated to e-sports. The Village will also host the Italian national e-sports team, as well as an interactive and engaging area by Adidas: an installation where you may test the speed of the new X Crazyfast boots.
Finally, there will be the essential street food area by Bar Atlantic.

• Saturday 9 September: activities from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., including the screening of North Macedonia-Italy from 8:45 p.m.
