Circolo degli Artisti

For the sound of the underground, Circolo is one of Rome’s best nights out, serving up a fine menu of fun: there’s Screamadelica on Saturday nights, with Italy’s alternative music oracle Fabio Luzzietti, while Friday night cracks open the electronica and house for gay night Omogenic. Regular grunge-guitar-electronica gigs see big names: think Glasvegas and Cornershop. The large garden area is ideal for chilling out with a beer from the open-air bar, with a barbecue in summer. Admission is either free or a bargain. On Sunday there’s usually a vintage market, sometimes curated by cutting-edge divas the Hysterics Fashion Network.
