The event will take place between 20-22 November 2009 at the Mauro Calabresi Municipal Sports Grounds, via Francesco Gentile, 41 (right behind the Cinecitta Studios).
The location has been provided courtesy of the commune of Rome and the 10th Municipal Council of Rome; this is a 1000 sqr. mt area with additional commercial and dining areas (a dedcated area for all those who would like to dine at minimal expense without leaving the location!). We have also made arrangements with Hotel Cinecitta, which is only a couple of hundred metres from the location, as well as other hotel in the capital, for accommodation facilities at very reasonable prices.
The location is situation just within the Ring Road, exit 21 (Tuscolano - Rome Centre), thus easily accessible from several motorways. It is also very close to Ciampino Airport and directly linked with Termini station via Metro Line A (Cinecitta). For those persons interested, we are also organising short tours to the city or other particular sites.
Following are some "technical" details about the event.
The jury will be composed of several masters at international level and so far, the following have confirmed their attendance: Danilo Cartacci, Davide Decina, Mariano Numitone, the Cannone brothers, Carles Vaquero, Alberto Fabri, Mario Venturi, Ivo Preda, and we are still awaiting confirmation from other renowned modellers. All this emphasises the high level of the event and those who will be judging models in the competition.
During the three days of the event, there will be short painting and sculpting workshops by Danilo Cartacci, Davide Decina and Mariano Numitone, besides a dedicated workshop for children being undertaken by Alberto Fabri.
There will be 38 categories and will include all types of static modelling.
