Open Air Opera and Aperitif at Terrazza Borromini
Overview
Experience a night of opera and elegance high above the rooftops of Rome. Enjoy the most beloved arias and duets by Verdi, Puccini, and Rossini on the stunning Terrazza Borromini, perched atop the historic Palazzo Pamphilj. Gaze out over Piazza Navona and admire Bernini’s Fountain of the Four Rivers, directly below you in all its splendor. Savor a glass of fine Italian wine and sample regional cheeses and cold cuts as you're serenaded by a live soprano and tenor, just steps away from you.
After the concert, you'll be guided to the Rooftop Terrace "La Grande Bellezza", where scenes from the Oscar-winning film were shot. From here, take in a 360° panoramic view of Rome’s most iconic monuments—St. Peter’s Basilica, Castel Sant’Angelo, and more.
