Rooftop Bar Opera Show: The Great Beauty of Rome

1 hour 45 minutesFree Cancellation

The new show by Vera Dragone takes its title from a famous piece by Lelio Luttazzi: a show with 9 artists on stage that proposes the setting and the sounds of the great Italian television variety of the 60s, one above all: Milleluci. The repertoire is inspired by the great ensemble numbers that have seen unforgettable performers such as Raffaella Carrà, Milva, Ornella Vanoni, Mina, Lo same Luttazzi, Jula De Palma and many others dance and sing. Along with her a varied kaleidoscope of artists: There are the dancers, the singer, the live band. The final picture is also framed by the sensuality of burlesque, which arrives and contributes in an elegant way to make this show even more seductive and mysterious, almost as if we were watching Sophia Loren’s famous striptease to the tune of Abat-Jour in “Yesterday Today and Tomorrow”. A spectacle of a world that no longer exists but that perhaps continues to excite and move us.

What are people saying about Rome

Ayisha_T, May 2026

Recommended!

I really enjoyed this tour - Sarah was a great guide and very knowledgeable. We were running a bit late due to heavy traffic on the way and the guides and tour company were fantastic about communicating and were overall helpful in getting us to the right spot with the rest of the tour. A great tour of the Vatican museum, Sistine Chapel, and other landmarks - highly recommend!

Rome Private Arrival Transfer: Fiumicino Airport to Hotel in Rome

Rome Arrival

The private transfer to our hotel after arriving in Italy was the first great choice we made on our trip. We did not have to wait in the long line for a taxi. The driver was knowledgable, friendly and drove through Rome expertly. It was well worth the cost!

Rome: Evening Golf Cart Semi or Private Tour with Aperitivo

Ava_L, Apr 2026

Fabulous tour with Emmanuel!

This sunset tour with our guide Emmanuel was fabulous! He is smart, funny, and engaging. Started off with Prosecco, had wine and cheese in the middle, and ended with a great selection of beer and wine from a small shop. Saw all the highlights including Trevi fountain, Pantheon, Colosseum, Roman forum, Circus Maximus, Vittoriano, and ended at the top of the Spanish Steps for a different view, where the tour ends. Could have walked down, but we chose to head back to the hotel from there, (taxis are available) and Emmanuel recommend a great place for a Gelato. We highly recommend this fantastic tour of Roma!!

Open Air Opera Concert with Terrace aperitivo over Navona square

PeggyKahan_T, Apr 2026

Great experience.

It was a well paced experience, amazing voices , plenty of wine and the food could count as a lite meal. It only lasted about an hour which left time for a walk around the piazza and surrounding area. We choose to sit in the back and we’re glad we did. The voices projected easily but might have been a bit loud in the front table. Lovely old hotel with a rooftop that had a perfect view.

Highly Recommend, spacious vehicle. On time Driver

Driver was on time, verified our booking, then from our hotel in Rome , swiftly to the Airport. Spacious vehicle for all our luggage. A group of 4. Very accommodating as our flight was changed and we needed to be at the airport earlier than scheduled.

The Great Opera Arias Concert at Palazzo Poli - Trevi Fountain

Catherine_E, Apr 2026

Beautiful show--even for kids!

We LOVED this experience! We'd wanted to see an operatic performance, but we knew that our kids (ages 9 and 12) might only tolerate a short one. This was perfect! The music was beautiful, and it was fun for me to realize that I recognized a lot of it. (Lots of classical hits!) The setting was great, too--with no bad seats in the room. And the view over the Trevi Fountain was great! It felt like we were in a private palace, waving to the crowd down below.

The Three Tenors Concert in St. Paul's Within the Walls

Andrea_J, Mar 2026

Beautiful experience!

I had the privilege to see the Three Tenors at St. Paul’s Within the Walls and it was such a blast! The singers were incredible—not just world-class voices, but also funny and charismatic. They really knew how to work the room. The venue is absolutely gorgeous, and hearing them backed by the live strings and piano made the whole night feel so much more intimate and special. The music filled the church perfectly and really tied the whole performance together. If you’re in Rome, I absolutely recommend it!

Rooftop Bar Opera Show: The Great Beauty of Rome

Michael_C, Jan 2026

Perfect experience to book to break up fast paced touring in Rome

Very enjoyable, unique experience. Singers were great and ambience was beautiful. We had booked several walking and food tours, museums and monuments, on top of day trips to Pisa and Florence for our total of 5 days in Rome, so it was pretty hectic. This was a nice change of pace to slow down and just take in the city and the music from the rooftops. Also, during part of this experience there was some light rain and wind and we appreciated that they went ahead with the performances anyway.

The Three Tenors in Rome - Nessun Dorma

Wayne_B, Oct 2025

Oh, What a Night

To be sitting in a beautiful 150yr old church in Rome, enjoying the performance of Three Tenors, a ballerina and exceptional musicians was more than I imagined it would be. Each performance seemed to play on different emotions. Very happy that we took a second look at this when going through the many events on the Viator site and reserved our evening!

Open-Air Opera Concert with Terrace Aperitif in the Heart of Rome

Erin_A, Oct 2025

Stunning, lovely… must experience!!!

My husband and I spent an absolutely lovely afternoon at the event…. Between the wine and hors d’euorvers, the magnificent view, and the *incredibly* talented singers we could not have been more delighted with the experience. The soprano took time to introduce each song and explain its context and significance. It was the perfect ending to our first visit to Rome. Would HIGHLY recommend to all travelers - especially those who are inexperienced with opera, like myself!

Rome by Night E-Bike Tour with Pizza Option

J_J, Jul 2025

Biking Around up and down

Most enjoyable but if you do not ride a bike well then use this services golf car tour. If you have good balance and like adventure with friends or your teenage children this is GREAT. A group of 6 is best because groups of 10 or more it’s difficult to navigate and stay together. Marco has many historical facts that add color to the structures seen along the tour. If you have a biking water bottle, GoPro or other device to use with a bike bring it. The pizza after the tour was the best thin crust we have had yet and our waiter was so much fun. We used the full 4 hrs and closed the restaurant. Best event for my friends and I yet.
