Organised by the Municipality of Milan and the Associazione BookCity Milano, the programme puts books and readers at the heart of events right across the city, with talks, book launches and panel discussions in libraries, bookshops, theatres, museums and other venues. This year\u2019s theme, <strong>\u201cIl senno sulla Luna\u201d<\/strong> [\u201cSanity on the Moon\u201d], draws inspiration from Ludovico Ariosto\u2019s <em>Orlando Furioso<\/em> and the need to find tools in books and culture that can help us interpret and make sense of the present.<\/p>\n<p>This year, Pirelli once again confirms its support for the festival as part of its wider commitment to promoting culture and reading. On <strong>Tuesday 24 November 2026<\/strong> at 11 a.m., the Pirelli Headquarters in Milano Bicocca will host the announcement of the shortlisted trios for the <strong>sixth edition of Campiello Junior<\/strong>. Established by Fondazione Il Campiello together with Pirelli and the Pirelli Foundation, it is one of Italy\u2019s top literary prizes for children\u2019s and young adult fiction, poetry, theatre and picture books, with the aim of promoting a love of reading among younger generations.<\/p>\n<p>On <strong>Thursday 26 November<\/strong> at 6.30 p.m., the Pirelli Foundation will also host a meeting at the ADI Design Museum under the title <strong>\u201cFormula 1: Passion, Speed, Innovation\u201d<\/strong>. Taking its cue from the book <strong><em>A Stir of the Soul: Pirelli\u2019s 500 GPs in the F1 World Championship<\/em><\/strong>, edited by the Pirelli Foundation and published by Marsilio Arte, the talk will feature Marco Tronchetti Provera, executive chairman of Pirelli and president of the Pirelli Foundation; Arianna Ravelli, deputy editor of <em>La Gazzetta dello Sport<\/em>; and Ivan Capelli, racing driver and sports commentator.<\/p>\n<p>The book at the heart of the talk celebrates Pirelli\u2019s involvement in <strong>Formula 1<\/strong> since 1950 with a rich array of photographs, largely drawn from the Pirelli Historical Archive, together with in-depth essays and insights into the bond between the company and motorsport. Spanning <strong>75 years<\/strong> across different eras of motorsport, the volume tells its story in pictures, from the dawn of F1 in the 1950s through the 1980s and on to the most recent challenges. The photographs alternate between faces and details, circuits and action on the track, behind-the-scenes moments and key statistics. Alongside the great stars of racing \u2013 from Alberto Ascari to Juan Manuel Fangio, Ayrton Senna and Nelson Piquet, through to Lewis Hamilton, Max Verstappen and Kimi Antonelli \u2013 the book also celebrates the technicians, engineers and mechanics who have made Pirelli\u2019s long-standing presence in F1 possible, turning competition into a testing ground for innovation and sustainability.<br \/>\nAdmission is free, subject to availability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BookCity Milano returns from 23 to 29 November for its fifteenth edition.
