FAI Spring Days 2026: archaeological site openings in Naples and Campania

FAI Spring Days: archaeological openings in Campania (21-22 March 2026)

On the weekend of 21–22 March 2026 the FAI Spring Days return, offering opportunities to visit historic and natural sites across Italy. In Campania, a significant portion of the program focuses on archaeological sites, excavation areas and archaeological parks, including sites that are rarely open to the public.

What to expect at the archaeological sites

Visits to archaeological locations may include guided tours, historical introductions and, in some cases, access to excavation areas or restricted zones. Local delegations and trained Young Guides (Apprendisti Ciceroni) help interpret the finds, stratigraphy and historical context for visitors.

Practical information for visitors

• Schedules and locations: check the official FAI Spring Days program for the complete list of archaeological sites and visiting hours.
• Access rules: many visits are free-contribution events; some require reservation or are reserved for FAI members.
• Donations and memberships: donations during visits support the Foundation’s conservation work; joining FAI can grant priority access.
• What to bring: comfortable footwear, water, sun protection and an ID for registration if required.
• Children and safety: check age limits and safety rules for each archaeological site before visiting.

Why visit during the FAI Spring Days

These special openings let visitors discover lesser-known archaeological heritage—from ancient settlements to coastal parks and burial grounds—and contribute to local conservation and enhancement efforts carried out by volunteers and institutions.
