✨ AI Summary
Two venues away from the court reopened in Turin on 13 November during the Nitto ATP Finals: Casa Tennis, set up in Piazza Castello for talks, meetings and entertainment, and Casa Gusto at the Archivio di Stato, run by the Chamber of Commerce and the Region to showcase local produce. Doubles pair Simone Bolelli and Andrea Vavassori cut the ribbon and spoke of wanting «the Finals in Turin for as long as possible». Mayor Stefano Lo Russo and regional councillor Andrea Tronzano pointed to 2030 as the horizon.
The Nitto ATP Finals are played in the arena, but the event in Turin also takes over the city. On 13 November the newsroom reports the reopening of two venues that have become the trademark of the event away from the court: Casa Tennis, inside the installation in Piazza Castello, and Casa Gusto at the Archivio di Stato.
Casa Tennis, the report says, will host talks, meetings and entertainment. Casa Gusto is the space devoted to the produce of Turin and Piedmont, curated by the Turin Chamber of Commerce and the Region. The report gives no attendance figures: it describes places and programmes, not measured crowds.
The ribbon was cut in the presence of Italy's doubles pair, Simone Bolelli and Andrea Vavassori. The report attributes to them the ambition of having «the Finals in Turin for as long as possible» and the belief that «we can play for keeping them until 2030», adding that «improving this event every year makes the difference».
The 2030 horizon is not only the players' wish: it is the position the report attributes to the institutions. Mayor Stefano Lo Russo says this edition opens «the second cycle of the tournament» and that the city is thinking about «two very good editions», adding that here «we are used to thinking about tomorrow, meaning 2030». Regional councillor Andrea Tronzano backs the goal of the full five years: «We are certain the ATP Finals will stay here thanks to the great collaboration and teamwork of this territory».
The third voice comes from the Chamber of Commerce. Its president, Massimiliano Cipolletta, calls events like the Finals «a showcase for our territory in the world» and Casa Gusto «a showcase for our excellence». One limit has to be stated: the article covers the opening and the quotes, not the programme of Casa Tennis talks and not the closing dates of the two venues.
To follow the tournament on court, the network has the order of play for 16 November and the story of the Italian Tennis Federation's proposal on the relationship between tennis and football.
Source note: the opening is reported by ANSA in an article published at 14.51 on 13 November 2026.
