Rome: The Colosseum After Dark

3 hours Rome, Italy 4.9★ across 34 reviews of Travelers Clan · new route

Highlights

  • The Colosseum after public closing, floodlit
  • Onto the reconstructed arena floor
  • The hypogeum — the tunnels and lift shafts beneath
  • The Roman Forum and Palatine Hill lit up alongside

The story

By day the Colosseum moves fifteen thousand people through it. After the gates close a small number go back in.

You walk out onto the reconstructed arena floor where the sand was, look down into the hypogeum where the animals and the machinery waited, and the whole thing is lit from underneath. Two thousand years of people being entertained by something appalling, and it is very quiet.

Itinerary

  1. Meet at the Arch of Constantine after closing, security, then roughly two hours inside with an archaeologist guide — arena floor, hypogeum and the upper tiers.

Know before you go

  • After-hours tickets are strictly capped and released about a month ahead — early booking is the whole game
  • Your name goes on the ticket and photo ID is checked at the gate
  • The arena floor and hypogeum are uneven ancient stone; flat shoes, and it is not step-free
  • It runs only in the warmer months, roughly April to October
