The Barcolana Experiences are back with Musement
Following last year’s success with Barcolana50, the partnership with Musement has been confirmed. The tourist platform will offer a range of tourist packages for you to live a unique experience during the Barcolana festival. Follow the race from a motorboat or enjoy a romantic dinner in the Gulf while following Barcolana by Night under a magnificent firework display. These are just some of the Barcolana Experiences Musement will offer, in partnership with Civado. The activities are already available and can be purchased online.

“The commissioned research study carried out by prof. Guerzoni from Bocconi University in Milan – commented Gialuz – has objectively shown that Trieste’s and the region’s tourist sector benefits greatly from Barcolana, more than Barcolana itself. The figures are impressive: over 40 million euros are spent in the region during the event, generating an overall value of more than 70 million euros. Not to mention the impact Barcolana has on promoting the region and the city of Trieste. Our partnership with Musement starts earlier this year because we want to arouse the curiosity of tourists, especially foreign tourists, making Barcolana even more appealing”.
