The first gay club in Rome- the Alibi opened more than forty years ago

In the district of Testaccio is located the first gay club in Rome, opened more than forty years ago. If you are on holiday in Rome staying at a  Bed & Breakfast Rome Historical Centre, the Alibi will be easy to reach because it is located in Via di Monte Testaccio 40.
The Alibi is the most popular gay club in the city, and is more than forty years that organizes parties and events. This year a major restoration has almost turned the colour purple that dominates on the two floors of the restaurant and terrace overlooking the rooftops of the neighbourhood.
There are four evenings of the week the excuse lucky, Thursday’s appointment with the Draq Queen and happy house music with an evening “Gloss“.

Here are the evenings of Friday, Saturday and Sunday, to discover! In short the Alibi club of Rome, was a gay bar, but it is definitely suited to every person who wants to enjoy the rhythm of a music crazy, and in the company of people very varied!

Will certainly be many interesting appointments with art during the “Notte dei Musei 2012″ in Rome. Take your calendar and mark the exact date in which this interesting event will take place in Rome. May 19, 2012 will be held this sort of “White Night of Museums“.

This is a very important event considering that will be as many as 40 countries to be involved with the Night of Museums in Rome. You can visit many places of history, culture and art until 2 am.

For more inputs at the participating museums will be totally free, so this appointment with the art is really addressed to all and it is a must for those who can visit more places in a matter of hours.

The opening of the Notte dei Musei in Rome has already been made official: the event will start at 20:00.

With the regards of the open places, we will mention a few places, since the complete list of initiatives is not ready yet: will definitely open the Musei Capotolini, Palazzo Barberini, the Macro, the National Gallery of Modern Art, Castel Sant ‘Angelo, Palazzo delle Esposizioni, University La Sapienza,the Borghese Gallery, Casa del Cinema, Centrale Montemartini, Casa del Jazz and many others.

On 1 May will be formalized the list all the sites that participate in the Night of the Museums of Rome, meanwhile, we would recommend you to book a b & b in Rome center, in order to be strategically placed to be able to visit at least three or four museums participating in the event.

For a quick and tasty meal between a museum and the other, we also recommend the restaurant La locanda degli Spiriti Allegri  … great food, good music and lots of fun!

a pen and a paper, a map of Rome in the hand… begin organizing our trip to Rome and to draw what you see in a few days, trying to walk as much as possible and also considering where we can organize ourselves to take the metro or bus. The best advice I can give is to start from the districts of Rome, and decide which ones you want to see, the districts of Rome keep all the beauties of the city. Consider the Monti district, the area of the Colosseum, the Celio district , Villa Celimontana and Piazza Navona area…so famous that certainly needs no explanation.

These are all adjacent neighborhoods that give the best of the city. Within these places on our trip to Rome are also different from the usual itineraries such as the fountains of Pietro Lombardi. The tour of the fountains in Rome is a classic, but also less popular these are very nice and visiting them, you have the opportunity to discover the most beautiful places in Rome. And if all this wandering makes you feel very thirsty, do not forget to stop at Trinity College Pub, where you will find the best Irish beers.

Put the backpack and enjoy your Roman holidays!

For the past twenty years the Friday evenings at the Muccassassina club in Rome has established itself as one of the evenings most exclusive and trendy of the capital, hosted by the Qube in Via Portonaccio 212. The key words are fun, good music and extravagance! This is because the Muccassassina is renowned for being one of the main gay venues in the capital. But this, as it should be, certainly does nothing to slow the boys and girls every Friday night straight and make false papers to get into the room and enjoy an unforgettable evening of entertainment, fun, and especially of disinhibition good music.

In the various rooms of the Muccassassina, arranged on three floors, each Friday night will be on stage a real show of masks, colour, music, lighting and video effects that make the unique atmosphere of the restaurant. Dj-sets, live entertainment, but also alternative culture and live performances, made of Muccassassina’s Friday night one of the most exclusive nights in the capital.

In the historical center of Rome, near the Aurelian Walls, on Viale di Porta Ardeatina, you can find al very European place… it is open from morning until late at night and it is a multi-faceted also. The Heaven looks like a little Paris bar where you can have breakfast in the morning then a snack for lunch, magically transformed into bistro in the evening and you can even listen to live music. This type of project is now increasingly also in our cities. Of course we Italians do not give up our tradition, so it is very easy to find a typical trattoria in Rome or the local cuisine of Tuscany, as well as we can even find the inn at Verona with Neapolitan cuisine.

But besides all this, and the beauty of old Europe, there are also places such as the Heaven, decorated in a minimalist style super-modern, functional spaces with well-thought, where you can eat, dine and enjoy a kitchen gourmet, refined and with high quality raw materials. But you can also go to dance and rent the Heaven for private parties.

A place for all tastes and all ages … Have fun and enjoy!
