About this event
Seventeen days of neighbourhood ottobrata in the gardens behind the old Via Sannio market: live sets from Rome's emerging scene, DJs after dark, a small funfair, craft breweries and wine tastings. On the weekends of 10–11 and 17–18 October a vintage and artisan market fills the paths, picking up the thread of the market the gardens are named for.
Why we picked it
A long, free, genuinely local festival a metro stop from San Giovanni, running right through the priority week and the two weekends after it.
