Ciampino Sports Festival

The great Ciampino sports celebration

The Sports Festival is one of the most anticipated events of early summer in Ciampino, located in the Metropolitan City of Rome Capital, in the Lazio region. For three days, Parco Aldo Moro turns into a vast open-air gym: fields, platforms, and green areas host exhibitions and end-of-year showcases by numerous local sports associations, which open their activities to anyone eager to try them out. Admission is free, and the public is encouraged to participate actively rather than just watch.

Sports for everyone, from children to adults

The heart of the festival is the rich variety of disciplines offered by local sports organizations. Over the years, the event has featured contact sports and martial arts, tennis and table tennis, padel, archery, artistic gymnastics, skating, dance, athletics, outdoor fitness, and team activities. The associations offer free trials and demonstration lessons, designed to help children and teenagers discover new passions and encourage adults to get moving. The event also includes award ceremonies for athletes who have distinguished themselves throughout the season.

Music, entertainment, and street food

Alongside the sports, the Sports Festival offers a packed evening entertainment program: concerts by bands and cover groups, performances by young local talents, comedy acts, and entertainment. The evenings conclude with a festive atmosphere, with street food and gourmet stalls accompanying the public throughout the event. For families, there are inflatables, games, and workshops, creating a large neighborhood-party vibe that involves the entire community.

An event dedicated to inclusion

The festival highlights the values of sport as a tool for social gathering and inclusion. Among the most appreciated initiatives are activities focused on inclusivity, such as cooking classes open to everyone, held in collaboration with local associations. The goal of the Vivinsieme Ciampino association, which organizes the event under the patronage of the Municipality of Ciampino, is to make the park a place for meeting and community.

Ciampino and the Castelli Romani

Located just a few kilometers from Rome and at the gateway to the Castelli Romani, Ciampino is a lively and well-connected city. The Sports Festival represents one of its defining events, capable of bringing together associations, families, young people, and enthusiasts in a single weekend around Parco Aldo Moro, the city's green heart.
