'Vespa World Days': More than 3,000 scooter pilots set out for the holiday region Zell am See-Kaprun
International balloonist teams, fans of the German cult car smart, and BMW motorcyclists: all of them have already come to Zell am See-Kaprun to celebrate their passion for incomparable trips through the air or along the roads. Now, another fan community has decided to stage its annual meeting in the gorgeous Alpine world surrounding Lake Zell:

(firmenpresse) - from 11th to 14th June 2009 scooter riders from all around the globe are meeting for the 'Vespa World Days', the largest international event of its kind. Besides celebrating more than 50 years of the Italian scooter, the joy of riding is what really counts for the participants. And one thing is for sure: the panorama roads in and around Zell am See-Kaprun are absolutely made for going for a cruise.
The Vespa is one of the most popular scooters worldwide. Only one proof for this is people's enthusiasm for the annual fan meetings. The fact that the 'Vespa World Days' are taking place in Zell am See-Kaprun has increased the interest in the event. More than 3,000 'Vespisti' from about 20 nations have confirmed their participation - many of them from Italy, the home country of the cult scooter. Until the start of the event on 11th June, the organizers definitely expect the number of participants to rise. As a curtain-raiser, the scooter pilots will set out for a tour up to the retaining walls of the Alpine reservoirs of Kaprun on Thursday. And in the evening of the opening day, there is a great picnic on the shores of Lake Zell.
Once again on Saturday, 13th June, the radiant blue mirror in the heart of the holiday region of Zell am See-Kaprun is the destination of uncountable Vespas, when their owners meet there to set out for a long parade circling the lake. The evening is culminating in a great avant-garde show at the ice rink of Zell am See where many first-class bands are performing live on stage. More musical highlights are scheduled for Friday when the visitors of the 'Vespa World Days' will be meeting at medieval Kaprun Castle. The landmark of Kaprun offers a stylish ambience for a suckling pig barbeque and the performance of music groups.
Before the participants head to the 'Castle Night', however, they will indulge in their biggest passion first: on Friday afternoon, the 'Vespisti' will open the throttle and target Grossglockner, Austria's highest mountain. For many participants, conquering the High Alpine Road may very well be the most tempting item on the programme of the Vespa meeting In addition, they can look forward to daily test rides and scooter shows. The Ferry Porsche Congress Center and the air field of Zell am See are the venues for a trail park, a Vespa museum and many other attractions. Italian passion meets Austrian flair in Zell am See-Kaprun!
