The planning and design of the event were entrusted to the event manager Rita Mineo.<\/p>\n\n<p>The park of Villa del Gattopardo has been conceived as a place of tranquility and beauty, an open space to enjoy the colors and scents of the seasons.<\/p>\n\n<p>Here lies the true attraction of the Villa, unique of its kind in Europe: a large Dancing Fountain choreographed to music: water games that move sinuously to the rhythm of 19th-century symphonies, illuminated by colorful and luminous effects and special projections and flames of fire. <\/p>\n\n<p>Designed for both outdoor receptions and indoor events, Villa del Gattopardo presents itself as a venue of immeasurable charm where one can relive the atmospheres depicted in the historic novel by Prince Tomasi di Lampedusa.<\/p>\n\n<figure
