Anantara Concorso Roma to Debut in April 2026
The first Anantara Concorso Roma is now scheduled for April 2026, having been adjusted and expanded from its original plans for 2025. The event will take place from April 16 to April 19, 2026, in Rome. It will showcase Italian automotive design and lifestyle, featuring a larger exhibition area, additional venues, and a program that highlights Italian culture, design, and hospitality.
The event is organised by Anantara Hotels & Resorts, with Anantara Palazzo Naiadi Rome as the host hotel, UBS as the presenting partner, and support from Richard Mille and Lockton. Following the postponement of the 2025 edition, many of the planned participants have confirmed for the new dates, including:
1902 FIAT Type 12/16hp
1938 Lancia Astura 4 Serie Tipo 41 Cabriolet
1951 Cisitalia 202 SC Gran Sport Cabriolet
1956 Alfa Romeo 1900 Zagato
1963 Ferrari 275P
Centred around Piazza della Repubblica, the Anantara Palazzo Naiadi Rome Hotel—set in a 19th-century building overlooking the Fountain of the Naiads—will serve as the main backdrop for the event.
With support from Roma Capitale, the 2026 edition will feature an expanded showfield, extending to Piazza Bucarest in the gardens of Villa Borghese. The programme will also include a dinner at Palazzo Brancaccio, a historic Roman residence near Santa Maria Maggiore.
