To commemorate Torino Future Week and the long weekend of 2 June, a special, free edition of our design tours is back!
A journey that traces Torino's metamorphosis through design, starting from the roots of its manufacturing heritage and moving on to the most innovative expressions of contemporary creativity.
The meeting point with the guide is in front of Eataly Torino Lingotto, after which the tour begins at the Carpano Museum, where the history of vermouth comes to life in a sensory exhibition celebrating the history and production of this Torino speciality. The tour continues into the heart of the Lingotto Complex, once one of FIAT’s main production centres and now a symbol of urban regeneration: a multi-purpose centre hosting culture, commerce and signature architecture.
The itinerary concludes at the Pinacoteca Agnelli, a museum on the roof of the former FIAT factory at Lingotto. The Casa FIAT project is an exhibition itinerary that, through images, objects and documents, tells the story of FIAT intertwined with that of the Turin plant. The visit concludes at Pista 500, where art, design and industry interact in an immersive experience that captures the ever-evolving spirit of Torino.
The tour ticket also includes entry to Pista 500.
Duration: 2 hours

A UNESCO Creative City’, funded by the Ministero del Turismo and organised in collaboration with the Città di Torino, Torino Urban Lab, Circolo del Design, and the associations Federagit Confesercenti and G.I.A. Torino, as well as Turismo Torino e Provincia, and financed by the Regione Piemonte.
