THE  ROSA GRAND HOTEL MILANO

The Rosa Grand Hotel captures all the elegance and refined allure of Milan, offering its guests a level of style and sophistication that truly reflects the Italian capital of fashion.

On entering the impressive Rosa Grand hall, you can sense the splendour of the hotel. No other hotel in the centre of Milan offers such an ambiance with interiors that lend a warm, inviting atmosphere in an intimate and private setting.

Set in the heart of Milan, the Rosa Grand overlooks the historic Piazza Fontana, behind the city’s imposing Duomo cathedral. Enviably located, the exclusive fashion district, the art collections of the Palazzo Reale and the Museo del Novecento are all within strolling distance. Nearby stands the world-famous La Scala opera house and the famous Galleria, home to historic cafés and chic boutiques of prestigious brands.

The rooms and suites are elegantly furnished, each with a distinctive style. Exuding refinement down to the very last detail, all have recently been refurbished. The dominant colours are pink, gold and peacock blue, with each room a calming oasis away from the vibrant energy of Milan.

BAGATTI VALSECCHI MUSEUM – Via Gesù 5 – Milan

Bagatti Valsecchi Museum is a house museum as the result of an extraordinary collecting story from the late 19th century, involving two brothers: the barons Fausto and Giuseppe Bagatti Valsecchi who dedicated themselves to the renovation of the family home located in the heart of Milan, in the fashion district. The two brothers began to collect paintings, sculptures and objects from the 15th and 16th centuries to display them in their home to create a residence inspired by the homes of the 16th century.

The gala dinner will take place after the aperitif served on the loggia terrace and after the guided tour of the house museum exclusively dedicated to our event. It will take place in the Hall of Honour where the brothers organized their social parties, opening the house to the high Milanese society.

The flagship store invites an iconic immersive experience, offering a distinctive blend of heritage and avant-garde. The space was created as a continuation and an evolution of the Maranello store.

Including references to its legendary history, racing content, and the new fashion collections, the store’s spaces follow one another with different functions but one coherent narrative to evoke all the souls of the brand. The internal atrium is dominated by a spectacular Formula 1 car, a perfect reproduction of the single-seater in which Michael Schumacher won the World Championship in 2002, suspended between two floors with a high visual impact. Garments and accessories alternate with installations and thematic exhibitions in this symbolic place, which displays an inseparable link with Ferrari tradition but at the same time is projected into the future.
