Live in Ottavo – Illustration and Music Festival

2025 marks the birth of Live in Ottavo – Illustration and Music Festival, conceived by Cosa Vedere a Roma for the capital's Eighth Municipality. The project takes shape within Roma Creativa 365, the call for proposals through which Rome Capital supports widespread and continuous cultural programming in all neighborhoods, even those furthest from the center.

The choice of Garbatella and Ostiense as a setting is no coincidence: it is one of the most distinctive and creative territories in Rome, in the Lazio region, where popular memory, street art, and cultural spaces have coexisted for years. The stated goal is to create a dialogue between the language of illustration, the heart of Cosa Vedere a Roma's activity, and live music, giving space to emerging artists and projects. This page collects essential information on the initiative and will be updated with details of subsequent editions.
