The famous Ronciglione Jazz Festival was renamed and moved to Soriano for 2007 and forward. It was renamed the Tuscia in Jazz Festival. Each year, beginning in mid July, the area hosts this massive jazz festival, attracting countless musicians and visitors from all over the world.
A massive stage is erected in the town's main square, and every night during the festival there are free performances on this stage. After midnight, the performers move to a beautiful pub that occupies a network of catacombs under the square. There, they take part in jam sessions lasting through the night.
This is a fantastic festival that has attracted many jazz greats through the years.
