Nestled within a natural landscape of incomparable beauty—yet easily accessible—and designed and built according to the most rigorous principles of sustainability, the Delta Open Air Resort offers innovative accommodation solutions. It is a new property born from the entrepreneurial vision of Ted Tomasi, with the contribution of Adriano D’Andrea Ricchi’s extensive experience in the tourism sector.

The boundary between business travel and leisure is becoming increasingly blurred. For companies, an event is no longer just an opportunity to meet or receive training, but also a chance to foster relationships, engagement and participants’ well-being. In this context, **bleisure** is playing an increasingly important role. This trend combines business and leisure and is helping to redefine the way meetings, conventions and incentive events are designed. Palazzo di Varignana embraces this evolution through an offering that integrates its conference facilities with experiences designed to enhance the value of each stay and transform time spent outside meeting rooms into an integral part of the event.
Nestled in the hills of Bologna, Palazzo di Varignana consolidates its position as a leading destination for MICE, strengthening a structured and measurable sustainability program that encompasses hospitality, events, people, and the local area. In recent years, the resort has embarked on a profound evolution of its organizational model, aiming to integrate environmental, social, and management criteria into every experience, including meetings, corporate events, and conferences. This approach has now translated into tangible results recognized nationally and internationally.

This represents a tangible advantage for companies and meeting planners, who can create comprehensive and coherent programs under one roof.
