In Madonna di Campiglio, the season finale is called SuperGrosté. This year, the event wrapping up the ski season in the Pearl of the Brenta Dolomites will take place over two days: SATURDAY, APRIL 12 and SUNDAY, APRIL 13, 2014.
SuperGrosté has reached its seventh edition this year and represents an unmissable event for Madonna di Campiglio regulars, enriched by special guests and prizes for all race participants.
It is the 4th Alessandro Bleggi Trophy, named after the former President of Funivie Madonna di Campiglio Spa, who always championed and supported this great event to bid farewell to the ski season among friends in Madonna di Campiglio. SPECIAL GUEST for the 2014 edition is MAX PEZZALI; also attending and competing alongside participants will be national alpine ski athletes and snowboard champions Alberto Schiavon and Manuel Pietropoli.
