The enduring popularity of the Fiat Panda was on full display at the 2026 edition of "Panda a Pandino," the world's largest gathering dedicated to the iconic Italian hatchback. This year's event attracted a record 1,219 crews to the town of Pandino, in northern Italy's Cremona province.

Among the most remarkable participants was a couple who traveled all the way from Uruguay, highlighting the increasingly international appeal of an event that began in 2017 as a modest meeting of Panda enthusiasts. Over the years, it has evolved into a global celebration of one of Italy's most recognizable automobiles.

One of the highlights of the 2026 edition was a spectacular vehicle choreography directed by automotive influencer William Jonathan. Hundreds of Panda owners positioned their cars to spell out the word "Pandino," creating a striking aerial image captured by drones hovering above the gathering.

Beyond its automotive appeal, the event also maintains a strong charitable focus. As in previous years, proceeds from the rally, after organizational expenses, will be donated to support local charities and community projects. The combination of passion, community spirit and philanthropy continues to make Panda a Pandino one of Italy's most distinctive automotive events.
