Dear customers, we'll be back as soon as the covid-19 situation will allow us to hold concerts. Please, leave your email and we will send you an update of the 2021 Concert Season.
In this Covid 19 period we changed our brand name from Rome Concerts to Rome Opera Concerts and consequently moved our website from romeconcerts.org to romeoperaconcerts.com to be more easily findable on Google, etc. That's why you will find reviews and other stuff up to October 2020 referring to us as Rome Concerts, but we are always the same people! More about our new brand name

After attending one of our concerts or shows you can enjoy the menu specifically dedicated to the Italian Opera that we have prepared in collaboration with the Zagara Restaurant. You have to walk only a few dozen meters and go to number 26 of the adjacent Via Paola.
In fact there is a substantial link between the Italian Opera and Italian Food. Just to mention a few examples, Gioacchino Rossini was very well known as a “gourmet” and a good chef himself, Giuseppe Verdi owned a farm in which he produced wine, and the famous Sicilian recipe of “Pasta alla Norma” owes its name to the opera “Norma” by Vincenzo Bellini.
