The Night of the Drums

The Night of the Drums in Casalvieri

Every summer, the historic center of Casalvieri, a small town in the province of Frosinone nestled in the greenery of the Comino Valley, in Ciociaria (Lazio), transforms into a grand open-air stage. Among the most beloved events in the Estate Casalvierana program is The Night of the Drums, an evening dedicated to rhythm and percussion that brings Piazza San Rocco to life every August 6th.

The Wikimusica Concert

The star of the show is the Wikimusica group, a collective of drummers and percussionists who bring a powerful performance to the square, featuring drums, drum kits, and various percussion instruments. Their energetic sound engages audiences of all ages, turning the square into a celebration of rhythm and sound under the starry August sky. It is more than just a concert; it is an immersive experience that invites you to clap along, move, and get swept away by the driving beat of the drums.
