Music entertainment in Rome

  1. A

    Anima

    The interior is overdone Gothic-Hawaiian, the music hi-energy house and hip-hop. It gets busy at this fashionable, fussily dressed-up bar, and there are burly bouncers on the door but no admission charge. The cocktails are great (around €10) and the drinkers are young, good-looking and loving it. Come early for drinks or drop by late for a dance.

    Etò

    A shiny, hi-tech club, hosting shiny, dressed-up people, Etò plays commercial house and dance to a lively crowd, and serves knock-your-socks-off cocktails. Most summers it moves to the terrace of the Palazzo dei Congressi in EUR : go-go dancers on the walls of Mussolini's stern architecture have to be seen to be believed.

    Teatro Ghione

    A former cinema, the Teatro Ghione is a small, beautifully restored theatre near St Peter’s that offers a varied programme featuring major international performers. You can catch anything from Pirandello to opera arias, from Chopin to Sarah Kane.

    Gloss

    With rough red walls, modern art and regular DJ and live music sets - mostly house and electrofunk - Gloss is appealingly laid-back, attracting a lively, but not too intimidatingly dressed-up crowd.
