Rome is not the kind of city in which you can get bored. With museums,Rock in Rome 2012, the Italian Rock Festival Articles historical monuments among the most ancient of the Roman Age and social and entertainment events, surely the capital offers entertainment occasions for everybody.

 

Roman evenings are liven up, apart from the tourists, even by the rock music which from the hippodrome Le Capannelle, fills the streets of the outskirts of the city centre; for the third time, in Rome, there is the appointment with the best Italian Rock Festival- the Rock in Roma Festival- which is a music event with international artists, who from the 7th of June to the 22nd of September will perform on the Roman stage.
