Giulio in jazz

In the Borgo of Ostia Antica, the enveloping and refined sounds of jazz once again take center stage during the summer evenings, thanks to second edition of the music festival made possible by the collaboration between the Ostia Antica Archaeological Park and the Saxophone Museum in Maccarese.

The concerts are held in the 15th-century castle overlooking the Borgo, a splendid example of Renaissance military architecture commissioned by the future Pope Julius II. Every Saturday in June, July and September (with a break in August), the Castle of Julius II extends its opening hours from 7.30 pm to 11 pm (last admission at 10.30 pm): at 8.00 pm, visitors have the chance to enjoy one of the scheduled performances under the stars.

Booking is compulsory. Information and bookings on the official website.
