An Unforgettable Evening: Ferretti Group’s Extravaganza with Elton John in Venice
In a dazzling display of elegance against the iconic backdrop of the Gran Teatro La Fenice in Venice, the Ferretti Group hosted an extraordinary event that left a lasting impression on over 900 privileged guests—the evening featured an exclusive performance by the legendary Elton John, whose timeless hits resonated within the historic walls of the renowned opera house, creating an atmosphere of magic and enchantment.
Alberto Galassi, the CEO of Ferretti Group, expressed his joy at the remarkable spectacle, stating,
“Only wonderful things can happen in Venice, in the La Fenice Grand Theater. We wanted to offer our guests a show that matched our boats and Ferretti Group’s incredible 2023.”
His gratitude extended to Elton John for delivering an unforgettable performance that added a touch of magic to the night.
The concert not only showcased Elton John’s musical brilliance but also served a noble cause. The proceeds from the event were dedicated to supporting Save Venice, a non-profit organization devoted to preserving the artistic heritage of the city, and the Fondazione Teatro La Fenice, a cause that the Ferretti Group has been actively supporting since 2021.
Ferretti Group, known for its commitment to philanthropy, took this opportunity to make a significant announcement during the event. The sale of the Riva Anniversario, a magnificent vessel auctioned to commemorate Riva’s 180th anniversary, was revealed. The entire proceeds from the sale will contribute to supporting children in El Salvador through the 7: the David Beckham UNICEF Fund.
Following the captivating concert, the attendees were treated to a sumptuous haute cuisine tasting at the Teatro La Fenice’s Sale Apollinee, curated by Massimo Bottura, the Chef of the three-star Michelin Osteria Francescana. This star-studded dinner added another layer of sophistication to the already extraordinary evening.
But the excitement did not end there. Guests had the exclusive opportunity to witness the debut of the new wallywhy100 on the water, adding a modern and cutting-edge dimension to the event. The unveiling of this extraordinary model, blending design, functionality, and cutting-edge nautical performance, perfectly complemented the timeless elegance of Venice.
