Davide has been a long term traveller for the last seven years, sharing his stories and impressive photos on NomadTravellers.com and travelling sustainably and very low cost. He knows every corner of Europe, in particular Italy and Romania, he loves Nepali Himalaya and he has extensive experience in South East Asia, where he calls Indonesia his second home. He is specialized in sightseeing guides and reports from his first hand experiences, with a focus on nature, arts and architecture.


The “Locanda Atlantide” is hidden behind a graffiti covered gate in the district of “San Lorenzo”, one of the most loved neighbourhood by Roman young crowds. Being located in proximity of the biggest university of Rome, it’s not difficult to imagine why San Lorenzo is populated by a myriad of students from any corner of Italy, and it’s renowned for offering cheap eating options and plenty of entertainment.

The Locanda Atlantide is just one of the many options available in this district, and it is quite popular because of its spacious structure, even though a little bit dull, giving a feeling of a squatted basement, and entrance fees are reasonable.

If you want to listen to genuine alternative live music in a no frill environment surrounded by local youngsters having fun, then the Locanda Atlantide might be the place to go.

After the concert the night is still going on and it’s possible to get more active and dance at the rhythm of rock, progressive and electronic music.
Getting here is not complicated: the easiest way is actually by feet from Termini Station, but if you don’t fancy twenty minutes walk, then there are plenty of buses and trolleys getting closer.
Just watch out for the entrance of the club, not easy to find in a dimly lit street.
