The ribbon-cutting ceremony is scheduled for 3:00 pm, with the inauguration of the ice rink and a performance by children from the Palaghiaccio Mezzaluna school, and the start of the "Radio l'Italia chiamò" broadcast. At 4:00 pm, institutional greetings will be given, attended by, among others, the Mayor of Rome, Roberto Gualtieri. At 4:45 pm, the book presentations will include "Belle ciao! How Giorgia Meloni and the Right Have Sent Feminism into a Tailspin" by Barbara Saltamartini and "Quel che resta del femminismo" by Anna Paola Concia. At 5:30 p.m., the assembly of regional councilors and assessors of the Brothers of Italy party will take place, while at 6:30 p.m. (literary café) the presentation of the book "Iubilaeum Nostrum. The Jubilee of the Two Popes" by Daniele Sabatini, with Gianfranco Rotondi, will take place.

For nine days, the gardens of Castel Sant'Angelo will transform into an arena for debate: a political hub with debates on current issues, as well as a family-friendly Christmas village. Markets, volunteer work, and a children's play area will also feature. International guests include Palestinian National Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and Rom Braslavski, an Israeli kidnapped by Hamas and held hostage for over two years. Interviews, debates, and presentations will feature government officials as well as all the opposition parties, along with their leaders. Entertainment and sports will also be featured, with performances by Carlo Conti, Mara Venier, Ezio Greggio, and Raoul Bova, among others. The closing event, as is tradition, will be on Sunday the 14th with a speech by Giorgia Meloni.
