Vespa World Days was formed in 2007 as a metamorphose of the excellent Eurovepsa Rally, which organized its first rally in 1954 and the final one in 2007. In 2006 the Piaggio Foundation along with Piaggio & C. S.P. A. founded the Vespa World Club, which oversees Vespa World Days.
The Clubs members are made up from National Vespa Clubs and Piaggio. Their Presidents and representatives attend an annual meeting to determine the location of future Vespa World Days.
Three Vespa World Days have been host t. The first was in the Republic of San Marino in 2007, followed by Cefalù, Sicily in 2008, then Zell Am See, Austria in 2009 and Fatima, Portugal in 2010. The VWD popularity continues to grow, culminating in an attendance in Fatima of 6000 visitors from 138 Vespa Clubs and 14 different countries.
