Centro Congressi Frentani hosts congresses, conventions, seminars, press conferences and training days for 20 to 400 participants in eight rooms, or in the whole building for larger programs. The center is at Via dei Frentani 4 in Rome, a few minutes from Roma Termini and Roma Tiburtina stations.
Seminars and company events
The eight rooms are spread over two levels and share the same technical standard, so a plenary in the Auditorium can run alongside breakout sessions in the smaller rooms. Wi-Fi reaches up to 1 Gbit, Full HD auto-tracking cameras follow the speakers, and a central system distributes audio and video between rooms. Events can be streamed live to YouTube, Teams, Zoom, LinkedIn or Vimeo, with remote participants able to take part. Two booths serve simultaneous interpretation, and a control room handles recording and broadcasting.
Meetings can also be recorded and transcribed by CABOLO One AI Premium, a tool that works offline and drafts the minutes, with live subtitles shown on screen or on personal devices. A reception desk, a VIP area and a press room with computers, printers and phone lines complete the setup. The whole building can be booked for a large or multi-part event.
Rooms and capacities
The Auditorium is the largest room, with 400 theater-style seats: 270 in the stalls and 130 in the gallery. It measures 18 by 24 meters with a 6-meter ceiling, and the finishes are marble and fine wood. A fixed speakers' table seats eight, beside a podium. Three projectors feed a 400 by 300 cm motorized central screen and two side screens, and four cameras cover the stage and the audience. Its foyer can hold an exhibition or a sponsor area.
Most of the other rooms carry the names of ancient Italic peoples. Latini takes 100 and is the most adaptable for unusual setups. Accademia takes 80 and suits press conferences and company presentations. Taurini takes 60 and is equipped for conferences, seminars and training. Caudini takes 50 and works as a meeting room or as a buffet area during a congress. Etruschi takes 45 and is used for business lunches and private meetings. Sabelli takes 30 and Marsi 20, for small groups and board meetings.
Catering
Food is prepared in the center's own kitchen with its partner RistorArte. The team handles coffee breaks, light lunches, aperitifs and working dinners, with menus adjusted to each event. A bar is on site.
History and setting
The center lies in the area between Porta Tiburtina and the university district, close to Sapienza University, the Policlinico Umberto I hospital and the historic center. It is run by Centro Congressi Frentani S.r.l., whose offices are nearby at Viale di Porta Tiburtina 40.
Getting there
Roma Termini and Roma Tiburtina are both a few minutes away, and metro lines A and B are within easy reach. Being this close to the city's main rail station makes the venue practical for participants arriving by train from other Italian cities, and for groups staying in hotels around Termini.
