This Sunday, 6 April, Venice will host the 45th edition of Su e Zo per i Ponti.
This event is organised by TGS Eurogroup and consists of a Solidarity Walk, whose theme this year is ‘Wonders to share’. The city of Venice is known throughout the world for its beauty and uniqueness and, in its own way, is a true wonder to be shared, allowing visitors to discover the architectural beauty and works of art hidden in every corner.
The event, which began in 1975, is a unique opportunity to discover the city through two picturesque routes that cross bridges and narrow streets, offering an authentic perspective of Venice.
The first route this year starts and ends in Piazza San Marco, the heart of the event, and consists of a 12.0 km route crossing 49 bridges. The second route, particularly suitable for younger participants, starts at the Port of Venice and, after covering 5.7 km across 18 bridges, ends in St. Mark’s Square, where an award ceremony for the largest groups will also be held at the end of the event. There will also be refreshment points in Campo S. Alvese for the full route and at the Port of Venice for the short route.
The Su e Zo per i ponti promotes not only sport but also solidarity and inclusion, values that are dear to us at Finking. As every year, any profits from the cost of the participation card and the purchase of the event’s solidarity T-shirt will be donated to charity in aid of Salesian works in the Holy Land.
