100 Pittori takes place on Via Margutta.

100 Pittori, Rome's historic open-air art event, returns to Via Margutta with its 121st edition from 27 April to 1 May 2024.

The five-day art festival will feature works by around 100 Italian and international artists who will be on hand to meet the public, from 10.00 to 20.00 each day.

The 100 Pittori art festival was launched the same year that the movie Roman Holiday made Via Margutta famous: 1953.

The tradition began thanks to the spontaneous initiative of Via Margutta's painters, sculptors, poets, musicians and craftspeople who moved in to the street in the aftermath of world war two.

Located near Piazza del Popolo and Via del Babuino, the fashionable Via Margutta is occupied today mainly by upmarket art galleries and antique shops.
