Isola Bella will host the final stop of the Nitto ATP Finals Trophy Tour from 7 to 10 November 2026, bringing the tournament trophy to the Borromean Gulf near Stresa, Italy. The island will also remain open to the public until 22 November, extending access beyond the previously announced season.
The announcement links a major tennis event with one of Lake Maggiore's historic island residences. It gives visitors a specific November date for the trophy presentation and a longer period in which to see Palazzo Borromeo and the Italian-style gardens.
Nitto ATP Finals Trophy Tour reaches Isola Bella in November
The final stop of the Nitto ATP Finals Trophy Tour takes place at Isola Bella from 7 to 10 November 2026. The tournament trophy will be brought to the island as part of a five-year agreement between Kaleon, the Italian Tennis and Padel Federation and the Nitto ATP Finals.
The FITP announcement of the programme says the trophy tour is the first activity of the partnership. The same announcement states that the island will remain open to the public until 22 November 2026, with Palazzo Borromeo, its gardens and several island businesses available during the extended period.
Palazzo Borromeo sets the scene for the tennis trophy
Palazzo Borromeo is a Baroque residence whose development began in the mid-seventeenth century under Vitaliano VI Borromeo. The complex includes more than 20 rooms, six decorated grottoes and the Galleria Berthier, which contains more than 130 paintings.
The garden is arranged across ten terraces, with statues, fountains, obelisks and the Teatro Massimo at its highest point. That layout gives the November event a setting that is directly connected to the island's built and landscaped heritage, rather than being a city event merely taking place nearby. A regional tourism guide to the palace and gardens records the site's history and its location in Stresa.
The garden's upper terraces look across Lake Maggiore, while the palace contains rooms associated with the Borromeo family and the island's long cultural history. The trophy's arrival therefore adds a temporary sporting display to a residence shaped over several centuries.
