This year the rich programme of summer events in Rome features a new, interesting happening: Roma Vintage.
Roma Vintage will take place from the 13th of June to the 15th of August in Parco San Sebastiano, and as the name of the event suggests, it will make all tourists who travel to Rome go back to the recent past. Roma Vintage, indeed, is a space dedicated to the 70s and the 80s, two decades which were very different from each other and which keep fascinate also young generations. From music to fashion, from films to sport, many cult items and events of that period are now part of our collective memory and not outmoded at all.
To experience that period again you only need to book a hotel in Rome and visit Roma Vintage, which will include many spaces and events, not to forget any feature of the culture and fashion of the 70s and the 80s and to meet everybody’s desires, both of those who personally experienced those years, and of those who were born or grew up later, but who are very interested in those decades. Parco San Sebastiano will host a large exhibitory area where you will find all kinds of vintage stuff: sport, music, fashion, motors items, and a whole section will host Italian products that have become symbols of that era, both in Italy and abroad.
The visitors who will stay in a campsite in Rome will not only have the possibility to visit stalls, they will also have the chance to participate in a number of events that will take place during Roma Vintage: an area of the park, indeed, will host theatre, music and dance shows. The programme includes many concerts of Italian (Scialpi, Righeira, Alberto Camerini…) and international (Imagination…) stars, who composed songs that marked those years, but music will play an important role also in other events: Revival Parties will make you dance with the disco and dance music of the 70s and 80s, while Pop Parties will include also the best music from the 90s to nowadays. Space will be given also to salsa and Latin-American music, with Latin Revival Parties, and to latin hustle, the dance that has become popular thanks to the cult movie “Saturday Night Fever”, with Hustle Dance. Besides music, the programme of Roma Vintage also includes theatre shows, readings of poems and monologues and films projections: you will have the chance to watch movies that are now considered as cult, like Italian sexy comedies, which are very appreciated by Quentin Tarantino, but also films, like “Il marchese del Grillo”, featuring Alberto Sordi, which have come down in cinema history.
The 70s and the 80s were also characterised by the spreading of Japanese cartoons and by some sport events, like the popular football match Italy-Germany 4-3 (1970), which is considered as one of the most thrilling sport matches ever: Roma Vintage will celebrate also these events, with projections of period films and pictures.
