Aniene Festival 2025

The Aniene Festival, one of the capital’s most anticipated summer festivals, returns to brighten up Roman evenings with 90 evenings of free events, offering a rich program ranging from music to theater, from dance to creative workshops, in the name of culture, music and sharing. An event that has now become a regular fixture for Romans and tourists, which every year attracts thousands of people to Parco Nomentano, in the Montesacro neighborhood, which transforms into a lively epicenter of events and live shows with free admission.

Each day of the week has a different theme: from Monday jazz with Tonio’s Monday, curated by guitarist Paolo Zou, to Tuesday dedicated to theater with Scena Madre and the stories of Golden Record. The Wednesday and Saturday concerts bring emerging and established artists to the stage, while Thursday features swing with dance lessons open to all, while Friday is dedicated to female artists with Female Friday Live and Sunday, finally, there are the international rhythms with Giro di pista.

The Festival also includes the play area with ping-pong and table football, the food village with gastronomic proposals curated by DosaggioZero and the market area of ​​EticArte; for the little ones, Espero Studio di Psicologia organizes creative workshops and motor activities, while adults can try their hand at acroyoga and acrobatics lessons with Circo MaXimo.

The big news this year is the fish restaurant, which is added to the evenings of aperitifs and dinners, in order to harmonize culture and good food, in the spirit of conviviality.

Even during Ferragosto, the Aniene Festival does not close: a week of special events is planned that represents an alternative to the traditional escape from the city for Roman citizens. 

Sponsored by the III Municipio, the festival, for its commitment to enhancing the territory and creating opportunities for the entire community to meet, confirms itself as one of the great protagonists of the Roman summer.
