Appia Day: Rome celebrates the Appian Way

Appia Day returns on 22 September 2024.

Appia Day, a day-long programme of events "to celebrate the charm and enchantment of the Appia Antica", takes place on Sunday 22 September.

 

Events will be held along the entire route of the Appia Antica, which was recently inserted in the UNESCO World Heritage List, from Rome to Brindisi.

 

There will be walking and cycling tours, trekking and children's activities at various locations throughout the day at the Parco Archeologico dell'Appia Antica in Rome.

 

Events in the capital include a 09.30 tour the Sepolcro degli Scipioni, and a 16.00 visit to the church of S. Urbano alla Caffarella, with reservations required.

There will be extended opening hours at the Museo delle Mura until 18.00 (last admission 17.00) and at the Villa di Massenzio until 19.00 (last entry 18.30).
