Since 1907 a momentous event that renews itself every year, growing more special and unique as each new season goes by.
With Atalanta taking it to the Pier Luigi Penzo stadium to play Venezia FC away on Sunday, the customary commemorative patch to celebrate the Club's 117th birthday will thus be sported on the team's jersey to be worn in the match against Hellas Verona, namely, the next following league fixture to be celebrated after the anniversary.
The celebration event to lionize, all huddled together, Atalanta's 117th anniversary is fixed for Saturday, the 26th of October, at the Gewiss Stadium! Save the date!
