    The above are some videos of the beloved Italian Village events of 2018 and 2019 and a WGN report on much of the history of this very historic restaurant landmark on Chicago's Monroe Street.
    I'd like to thank the Capitanini Family for their generiosity to sponsor this event year after year. This was an event that shows how many Ferraris will show up for such a great charitable event with real sponsorship.

    Neil Osgood did have some issues with the city in the 2019 event. Thanks for your part in putting these events together Neil.
    This was simple for FCA members to attend. Be a member, register (No entrance ticket/fee required), enjoy what the Italian Village staff prepared for lunch and have a great time!

    Maybe sometime in my lifetime this could happen again.. Oh the glorious music Ferraris can make bouncing off the buildings!!!

    Neill Osgood has been in contact with the Italian Village owners since the first of the year and we are trying to find a date and format that works for the owners, FCA and avoiding major events in the city of Chicago. More to come..... as we all try our best to get this event back on the calendar.

    Andrea Bocelli will be at the Allstate Arena on May 20th. Bring him to the Italian Village then, and shut the block down, baby!
