Gazzetta Active in Recco on 25 October

An outdoor stage dedicated to sport for everyone, in one of the most famous bays in Liguria for surfing. See you next Saturday, 25 October, on the Bettolo seafront in Recco for the “Liguria Active Day”, the first event in the square dedicated to sport, launched by the Liguria Region and organized with Gazzetta Active and in collaboration with the Municipality of Recco. The event (free to attend, by reservation) is part of the activities introduced as part of “Liguria 2025 – European Region of Sport”, after the great success of last year in which Genoa, with over a thousand events, boasted the title of European capital of sport. This time the initiatives have been extended to the entire regional territory and on this occasion the Lungomare Bettolo in Recco will be transformed into an open-air gym, with free lessons and activities for all ages and all levels of preparation. This is one of the most significant initiatives promoted by the regional administration: “We are proud – explained the regional councilor for sport Simona Ferro – to create an event that enhances the social and aggregative role of sport and promotes healthy and active lifestyles, making everyone protagonists: citizens, associations and local communities. It is a project destined to grow and become a stable event in the area, thanks also to the collaboration with Gazzetta Active and the Municipality of Recco to make it an increasingly popular event year after year.”
