Rome's nightlife is renowned for its stylish and trendy image, and recently clubs and bars have sprung up in large numbers all over the city, including the historic centre (Centro Storico). Although the main clubbing nights are Friday and Saturday, you will find something to suit your tastes on most nights of the week. It is worth noting that most clubs tend to charge an entrance fee, however this usually includes one drink (with your ticket). The main clubbing area is located around Testaccio, while cheaper nights out can be had in San Lorenzo.

Theatre & entertainment

Rome has a varied entertainment scene, and can cater for a variety of tastes. From classical music concerts to opera you will be guaranteed to experience true Roman entertainment. The theatre scene in Rome is not as well developed as its operatic and musical counterpart, but there is still a good choice. Remember that plays will be performed in Italian, even those by foreign playwrights. Tickets are normally purchased in advance from the box offices themselves. In summer, theatre, opera, and musical concerts generally move outside to open air venues, all adding to the atmosphere.
