Events

La Minerva Series

An intimate musical encounter

From November 2026 to June 2027, La Minerva Series brings classical music to the Olimpo Ballroom at Orient Express La Minerva. Created in collaboration with Fondazione Nicola Bulgari, the programme welcomes distinguished international musicians for a season of performances celebrating the richness of the classical repertoire.
Each concert offers an opportunity to experience music at close quarters, within the distinctive surroundings of the ballroom. At La Minerva Bar, the evening may begin with an aperitif before the performance or continue over dinner, with a menu conceived to complement the musical experience.

Routes

The many expressions of mixology

Routes explores the many expressions of contemporary mixology through encounters with acclaimed cocktail bars and international bartenders. Each gathering brings together distinctive techniques, creative approaches and influences from around the world, offering a fresh perspective on the culture of cocktails.
Set within the Art Deco surroundings of Wagon Bar, every encounter reveals a different facet of the craft, shaped by the people behind the bar and their own interpretation of the cocktail experience.
