The Mezzaluna Cup is an annual ice dance competition sanctioned by the International Skating Union (ISU), organized and hosted by the Italian Ice Sports Federation (Italian : Federazione Italiana Sport del Ghiaccio) at the Palaghiaccio Mezzaluna in Mentana, in the Metropolitan City of Rome Capital in Italy.
