Edition 2025 — Via Balilla Festival

The 2025 edition of the Via Balilla Festival was held on Saturday, June 21, with a gathering at 7:00 PM and festivities lasting until the early hours of June 22. On that occasion too, the Esquilino street was closed to traffic to host neighborhood tables and the Scuola Popolare di Musica di Testaccio band, in an evening marking the start of the Roman summer, characterized by sharing and completely free admission.

2025 Edition

On Saturday, June 21, 2025, Via Balilla, in the Esquilino district of Rome, hosted a new edition of its historic Neighborhood Feast, confirming the third Saturday of June appointment.

The program followed the established pattern: gathering at 7:00 PM, tables set up by the street's families, food and drinks brought and shared without any sales, and the unmissable performance of the band of the Scuola Popolare di Musica di Testaccio to officially open the evening.

To allow the festival to take place, a no-transit zone was ordered on Via Balilla from 12:00 PM on June 21 until 2:30 AM on June 22. Admission was, as always, completely free and open to anyone who wanted to join the tables.
