Our commitment to the local community

Gruppo Antonini is proud to support the Borgata Marinara del Muggiano, one of the leading crews of the Palio del Golfo, the event that for over ninety years has been one of the most authentic symbols of the traditional heritage of the Gulf of La Spezia.

Through our contribution, we aim to celebrate a community that has preserved and handed down the culture of the sea for generations, while fostering a spirit of togetherness, a sense of belonging and the involvement of younger generations in the life of the local area.

In June 2025, Gruppo Antonini contributed to one of the most significant cultural events for the city of La Spezia. For the performance of Giuseppe Verdi's opera Simon Boccanegra, the Claudio I barge was transformed into a striking floating stage set up in front of the Amerigo Vespucci, the Italian Navy's historic training ship and a protagonist of the celebrations for the Centenary of the Palio del Golfo.

Through this initiative, culture, the sea and local identity came together in a unique setting, offering the community and visitors an experience of great artistic and symbolic value. We are proud to have made one of our operational assets available to support a project that enhances La Spezia's cultural and maritime heritage.

Gruppo Antonini has chosen to stand alongside the Consulta Provinciale Femminile della Spezia in supporting the initiatives promoted as part of the Premio Portovenere Donna for 2025 and 2026. The project celebrates women's contribution to society, promotes gender equality and raises community awareness of highly relevant social issues.

Through this partnership, we reaffirm our commitment to supporting paths that foster inclusion, equal opportunities and the recognition of female talent. We believe that sustainable growth also depends on valuing people and promoting a culture founded on respect, participation and equality.
