Make a Mayday Call
It might be the eternal city, but Rome could still be a bit more special on May Day (May 1st) as it hosts a huge international music festival.
Featured heavily on TV and held in the Piazza San Giovanni, the event attracts a crowd of thousands to this open air event, in which themes of charity and social consciousness are highlighted, Amnesty International having been at the fore in recent years.
Apart from the festival, the city of Rome naturally offers a huge range of attractions for visitors staying in cheap hotels.
Lovers of history can explore the Coliseum, catacombs and numerous other Roman historic monuments, the devout or just curious can cross the Tiber and leave Italy entirely for a trip to the Vatican, while the food and nightlife of the city remain as good as ever and those venturing beyond will find the sea just a few miles west.
