Spectacular from start to finish
The opening ceremony of the 'stad van de Vrede' (city of peace) tournament is at least as spectacular as the competition itself. Among the mountain peaks of the Dolomites, before the enormous clock of peace has struck 100 times, the anthems of the 100 participating teams are played, in accordance with the oath of fair play. The teams then walk in a celebratory parade through the centre of Rovereto, where they are greeted by the city governors - a magical feeling which resonates throughout the matches and especially during the final, when the stands are packed to the rafters. Participation = enjoyment. Are you in?
