Ottobrata Monticiana
From October 10 to 12, 2025, the Monti district will once again celebrate with Ottobrata Monticiana, the traditional autumn festival that enlivens alleys and squares with music, shows, exhibitions, guided tours, workshops, and activities for all ages.
The heart of the event will be Piazza della Madonna dei Monti, but the entire neighborhood will become a widespread stage, featuring art, crafts, and typical Roman cuisine.
