The history of the WEmbrace Games – 2024 will be the twelfth edition of the WEmbrace Games. The event was born in 2011 with the name “Games Without Barriers”, inspired by the historic Games Without Borders. It is an evening of spectacular and scenographic games that promotes inclusion from a geographical point of view, just like the Games Without Borders, but also and above all from a social point of view, between people with and without disabilities, to break down physical obstacles and not only. After years of success, in 2022 “Giochi Senza Barriere” became “WEmbrace Games”. The renewed name integrates with the launch of the “WEmbrace” movement, i.e. “We embrace”, which through art4sport events and projects aims to promote inclusion, embracing and enhancing everyone’s diversity, through art4sport events and projects. The triptych of the movement’s annual events is made up of the WEmbrace Games (in Rome), the WEmbrace Awards (in Milan) and the WEmbrace Sport (in Milan).

The 2023 edition saw the participation, among others, of Bebe Vio Grandis, the ex-footballer Francesco Totti, the singer Malika Ayane, the television and radio host Rudy Zerbi, the actors Giorgio Pasotti, Ludovico Tersigni, Amanda Campana and Cristiano Caccamo, the comedian and influencer Danilo Contaldo (known as “Danilo da Fiumicino”), the pilot Vicky Piria and the dancer Samuel Peron.

The objective – The event will have the aim of raising funds in favor of art4sport ONLUS, the Bebe Vio Grandis Association which supports and promotes sport as therapy for the physical and psychological recovery of children and young people with prosthetic limbs. The Association’s objective is to study, create and finance the expensive prostheses and equipment necessary for the practice of Paralympic sport.
