June in Rome

Rome June Appia Antica

June in Rome marks the transition from spring to summer. During this month, Rome celebrates two holidays: the Festa della Repubblica and the Feast of the City Saints Peter and Paul. In addition, school vacations begin in mid-June, resulting in less traffic.

If you are traveling to Rome in June it is generally easier to find accommodation in the city center than at Easter or in October. As the month progresses, the weather tends to get hotter, so we recommend choosing accommodation with air conditioning. For information on suitable areas and helpful tips on choosing a hotel, please see our Hotels in Rome article.

What to wear in Rome in June

Rome June clothing

Visiting Rome in June is generally pleasant, although it can be quite hot in the sun. Don’t forget sunscreen. A hat and umbrella are very useful against the sun, and a raincoat just in case.

When visiting churches and catacombs, it is important to dress modestly by covering your shoulders and knees. If you choose to wear off-the-shoulder shirts or dresses, remember to bring a scarf or pareo. Since there is a lot of walking and the sidewalks can be uneven, comfortable footwear is essential in Rome. Use a bum bag to protect yourself from pickpockets. Backpacks must be lockable.

For more tips, see our guide to dealing with the heat in Rome.

What’s on?

June is dedicated to Juno, the Roman goddess associated with childbirth, marriage, and care. Rome has two public holidays, June 2 and June 29. Most shops in the city center are open seven days a week.

As the Roman summer begins to heat up, many attractions and activities are available to enjoy. Experience the vibrant atmosphere of Rome at this time of year with concerts, open-air movie screenings and street stalls along the Tiber River. Make the most of the approaching summer by visiting picturesque Roman villas or exploring the city’s scenic viewpoints.

Rome june Seafood

In keeping with the summer weather, there are many light and delicious creations and many fish dishes in addition to the classic pasta dishes.

FAQ

Is June a good time to visit Rome

June is an ideal time to explore Rome thanks to its pleasant and sunny weather. The extended daylight hours allow for plenty of sightseeing and outdoor activities. In addition, the vibrant holiday spirit that permeates Rome during this month is enhanced by the departure of many locals on vacation, resulting in less congestion and a more relaxed atmosphere with less crowds and traffic. It’s also worth considering a trip to the nearby seaside and mountains, as June is a prime time for such excursions.

What to pack for Rome in June

Keep the sunny, warm weather in mind when packing for Rome in June. Opt for lightweight, breathable fabrics such as cotton and linen to stay cool during the warm days. Ideal outfits include shorts, skirts, dresses and short-sleeved shirts. Remember to cover your shoulders and knees when visiting churches and catacombs. Pack essentials such as sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses and comfortable walking shoes. If you plan to visit the sea, don’t forget your swimsuit. You may also want to bring a compact umbrella for sun and possible rain, as well as a raincoat just in case. While metal and water bottles are not allowed, you can bring plastic bottles and fill them at water fountains throughout the city. Carry only a small amount of cash and a credit card, and use a bum bag for protection against pickpockets.

Best things to do in Rome in June

In June, Rome offers a range of outdoor activities, opportunities to visit churches, attend concerts, go shopping and enjoy delicious food. You can explore the Colosseum and the archaeological area, visit St. Peter’s in the morning, shop for souvenirs, and find solace in a church. Discover the catacombs of the ancient Appian Way and the excavations of Ostia Antica, venture to the nearby sea or the mountains. Attend concerts at Rome Summer Fest or Rock in Roma, enjoy a meal in a piazza under the stars, and take a leisurely stroll among the street vendors along the Tiber River or through the charming streets of Trastevere.
