If you love sports, music and entertainment a holiday home near the Foro Italico is ideal for not losing some of the most important events of Rome while staying in an elegant, quiet, cheap and private apartment ( Holiday homes are in fact the only extra-hotel structures that you don't have to share with any other guests and that fully-equipped with a kitchen).
In addition to being a huge complex of structures dedicated to sporti events, most notably the Olympic Stadium which hosts the matches of Roma and Lazio football teams (and the final of the Italian Cup final, as well as many athletic events and some matches of the Italian National Rugby), the Foro Italico is also one of the places in Rome where very important concerts are held, and performances of the best comedians and Italian actors.
The biggest stars of pop and rock music have performed here during the last years, including Madonna, the Rolling Stones, Vasco Rossi, Bruce Springsteen, Luciano Ligabue, Usher, U2, Tiziano Ferro, George Michael and so many other great musicians. Next summer there will be the mega-concerts by Muse, Pink Floyd and Depeche Mode.
During the summer shows and concerts are given also in the Tennis Central stadium (the same where the International Championships take place), still within the Foro Italico. The Central Stadium is a harmonious completely white structure made of glass, concrete and steel. It has more than six thousand seats available and it's one of the biggest arenas of Rome and Italy.
Many Italian artists have chosen the prestigious stage of the Central stadium in 2012, such as Duran Duran, Franco Battiato, Emma, Giovanni Allevi, Enrico Montesano, Alessandro Siani and Vincenzo Salemme, and for the 7th of July 2013 is scheduled a concert of the important American singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen.
