Non Farcela Party in Rome: date, times and tickets

The Non Farcela Party at Orion Live Club is scheduled for Friday, November 27, 2026, with doors at 20:00, start at 21:00 and closing at 23:30.

The times

The Orion website publishes three exact times: doors at 20:00, start at 21:00, end at 23:30. The page says it clearly: you start early and finish early. It's a choice that sets the party apart from a normal night at a club and lets you get home before midnight.

Tickets and prices

The price published by the seller linked from the club's website is 17.25 euros, the total to pay. Tickets are digital and in your name on the seller's app. Other channels have nothing to do with the organizers.

Who organizes it

The night is presented by Orion Live, the company that runs the club together with The-Base. Hosting is in the hands of Francesca Fiore and Sarah Malnerich, alias Mammadimerda, who created the format.

A Friday night

November 27 is a Friday. Traffic heading south out of Rome at that hour is heavy: if you're coming by car, leave with time to spare to be at Orion when doors open.

What the Non Farcela Party is

The Non Farcela Party is a party designed by women for women: a night to sing, dance, laugh and let off steam without feeling judged, as Orion's official page describes it.

The party for women, created by women

The night's slogan is a statement of intent. According to the venue's description, for a few hours you forget about having to be a good mother, a good partner, a good daughter, a good worker, good at anything. The title echoes the Mammadimerda philosophy: the right not to make it (non farcela), not to be perfect, to laugh at your own shortcomings instead of being ashamed of them.

Who to go with

The official page suggests going with friends, with your mother, with your sister or even alone, promising that after five minutes you'll be singing with perfect strangers as if you'd known each other forever. The party isn't designed for couples or mixed groups: the point is to be together among women.

A soundtrack written by the community

The playlist isn't chosen by a DJ: it's built by the participants' community. Week after week the organizers collect the songs that made people fall in love, cry, let off steam, dance on the bed with a hairbrush in hand or scream in the car with the windows down. The result, the club's page says, is a playlist you won't find at any other party, because it's the story of thousands of women set to music.

Karaoke and collective madness

The night promises karaoke, moments of laughing until you cry, small bouts of collective madness and an energy that, the organizers promise, is hard to find at any other night out. The format is that of a participatory party: the audience is the real star.

Who Francesca Fiore and Sarah Malnerich are: Mammadimerda

Francesca Fiore and Sarah Malnerich are the authors of Mammadimerda, the project born in 2016 as an ironic, feminist blog about imperfect motherhood that became a publishing and social phenomenon.

The 2016 blog

Mammadimerda was born in 2016 on the initiative of Sarah Malnerich and Francesca Fiore. The publishers' descriptions of their books call it an irreverent, ironic, unsettling and feminist blog: the project is the redemption of the imperfect or inadequate woman, the comeback against the perfect mother of social media.

The manifesto

The official website sums up the project's line in a few words: telling the lowest moments and the unspeakable mistakes of an experience as wonderful as motherhood, spreading one's own inadequacy to lighten other women's guilt. It's a humor that comes from everyday life and speaks to a very wide audience.

Mdm1 and Mdm2

The two authors sign with two codes. Francesca Fiore is Mdm1: she lives in Turin, is the founder of Mammadimerda and, as her bio says, has two failed business ventures behind her. Sarah Malnerich is Mdm2: Roman, at 20 she moved to the valleys of Canavese, in Piedmont. The return to Rome, for the Non Farcela Party, also has the flavor of a hometown night.

The campaigns

The project doesn't stop at irony. Fiore and Malnerich promoted the #NONCISIAMO campaign and then #HALFOFIT, presented at the Chamber of Deputies with the title #ILGIUSTOMEZZO. These are initiatives on the situation of working mothers and on the sharing of family workload, which brought the blog's language into public debate.

Non sei sola

In November 2019 their first book came out, Non sei sola. Fenomenologia della Mammadimerda, with illustrations by Giuditta Matteucci. The book puts forward a manifesto of "Mammamerdismo," with a humor at once subtle and coarse. The central message is in the title: you are not alone.

Non farcela come stile di vita (Not making it as a lifestyle)

Then came Non farcela come stile di vita with Feltrinelli, also available as an audiobook from February 13, 2024. The book starts from a modern paradox and proposes lowering expectations, embracing your own inadequacy and asking if the way to make it isn't precisely not making it. That's where the Orion party gets its name.

From the book to the party

The Non Farcela Party is the project's latest transformation: after the blog, social media, campaigns and books, the Mammadimerda community meets in person. The playlist built week after week with readers is the thread linking the party to the rest of the two authors' work.

How the night works: what to expect

The night at Orion follows a simple schedule: entry from 20:00, party from 21:00, closing at 23:30, with music chosen by the community, karaoke and hosting by the two authors.

A party for singing

If you expect a club with trendy music, you'll find something else: a room where you sing at the top of your lungs the songs of your life, from the ones you listened to as a girl to the ones you screamed in the car. The repertoire depends on the community's choices, and for that reason it changes from one city to another.

A short party

Two and a half hours of party, from 21:00 to 23:30. The brevity is intentional: if you have kids, work on Saturday morning or simply want to sleep, you can enjoy the night without staying out until three in the morning.

Joining the community

The official page gives a messaging channel to join the community and contribute to the playlist. If you want to hear your song at Orion, you have a few weeks to suggest it.

How to plan the Non Farcela Party night

A two-and-a-half-hour party outside the Raccordo, on a Friday night at the end of November, needs planning: who's coming, with whom, what time you're going home.

The ticket

You buy the ticket on the presale circuit linked from the Orion website. If you're going with friends, it's wise to buy together, so you're sure you'll all get in: at parties with a loyal audience, tickets can run out before the night.

The trip

The simplest way is a shared car: one car, one person who drives and doesn't drink, leaving Rome around 19:15 to arrive when doors open. Alternatively, metro A to Anagnina and bus 551, or the train to Ciampino and a taxi. For the trip home after 23:30 public transportation is scarce: a booked taxi is still the most relaxed choice.

Dinner

The party starts at 21:00 and the area around the club offers little. An early dinner in Rome or in central Ciampino, around 19:00, lets you arrive on time and not dance on an empty stomach.

The next day

Ending at 23:30 means being home around half past midnight. Saturday stays free: if you're coming from out of town, a morning in the Castelli Romani or on the Appian Way rounds out the weekend.

If you go alone

The official page also invites those without company: it's a party built for meeting people. If you're going alone, the practical advice is a taxi booked for closing time and a message to someone you trust with your time home.

A curious fact about the Non Farcela Party at Orion Live Club on November 27, 2026

The juiciest curious fact concerns the way the night's music is born. At almost every party the soundtrack is decided by whoever is at the decks. At the Non Farcela Party, instead, the participants build it. Week after week the organizers collect songs tied to a specific memory: a first love, a breakup, a night in the car with the windows down, a dance on the bed with a hairbrush as a microphone. The playlist that comes out of it is, in the words of the official page, the story of thousands of women set to music.

The second curious fact is in the name. Non farcela (not making it), for Mammadimerda, isn't surrender but a philosophy: the title of the Feltrinelli book proposes turning inadequacy into a lifestyle, freeing yourself from the obligation of always measuring up. The party puts that idea into practice: for a few hours nobody has to prove anything.

The third is about language. The two authors sign as Mdm1 and Mdm2, like two secret agents of imperfect motherhood. One of them, Sarah Malnerich, is Roman: the Orion night is, for her, a return to her hometown, even though the party takes place just outside the city limits of Rome.

Orion Live Club in Ciampino, the party venue

Orion Live Club is a live music and clubbing venue at Viale John Fitzgerald Kennedy 52 in Ciampino, run by the company The-Base and presented by the Roma Capitale tourism portal as a multipurpose club open to every style.

The spaces

The club has a 1,200-square-meter floor, two rooms, a VIP area and an after-show room. The structure and capacity let it host any kind of event, from an acoustic concert to metal to a DJ set. For a party made for singing together it's a size that works: big enough for hundreds of people, intimate enough to feel part of the same night.

What it's like

If you picture a theater, you'll find something else: a concert hall with a low stage, a powerful sound system and a standing audience. On the night's poster the venue appears under the name Orion Arena.

Contacts

The number published by the venue is 06 89013645. The email address is info@orionliveclub.com. General information on the club is on the Orion Club page.

Something nobody tells you about the Non Farcela Party at Orion Live Club on November 27, 2026

What few people say is that Orion isn't in Rome but in Ciampino, in the Gregna Sant'Andrea industrial area, just outside the Grande Raccordo Anulare. For those living in north Rome that means at least half an hour on the road, more on a Friday night. The night ends at 23:30: plan the way home before going out, deciding in advance who drives or booking a taxi. The area around the club is poorly lit and parking is in the lot and on nearby streets.

The second rarely mentioned thing is about the audience. The party is presented as devoted only to women, and for many participants it's a chance for a night out without the usual family entourage. That's exactly why it's best to plan ahead with friends: arrive together, set a meeting point in the room, decide the time to head home. The official page also encourages those going alone. In that case, a taxi booked for 23:30 takes away every worry.

The third is about the playlist. If you want to hear your own song, you need to join the community before the night, through the channel listed on the Orion page: the setlist is built in the preceding weeks.

My advice for the Non Farcela Party at Orion Live Club on November 27, 2026

My first piece of advice is to join the community a few weeks ahead and suggest your song. It's the best way to feel part of the party, and it makes the night personal: hearing your own memory become the chorus of an entire room is the experience the organizers promise.

The second is to arrive when doors open, at 20:00. The party starts at 21:00 and lasts only two and a half hours: if you arrive late you miss an important part of it. The hour of waiting is for finding your friends, getting a drink, settling into the room.

The third is to dress comfortably. You'll sing, dance and jump: flat shoes and a light outfit under your coat are the right choice. At the end of November evenings in Ciampino are cold, but inside the club it warms up quickly.

The fourth is to plan the way home before leaving the house: whoever drives doesn't drink, or a taxi booked for closing time. Finally, reading one of the Mammadimerda books before the night helps you get into the spirit. If you already know them, you know laughs are guaranteed.

How to get to Orion Live Club in Ciampino

Orion Live Club is at Viale John Fitzgerald Kennedy 52 in Ciampino, in the south just outside the Grande Raccordo Anulare. There are three options: car, metro plus bus, regional train plus taxi.

By car

Take the Grande Raccordo Anulare and get off at exits 21 or 22, following signs for Ciampino and then for the Gregna Sant'Andrea industrial area. From central Rome, with normal traffic, the trip takes about half an hour. On Friday evenings traffic leaving the city can stretch the time.

Parking

Parking is in the venue's lot and on the surrounding streets. The area is poorly lit: better not to leave anything visible in the car and, on the way out, walk back to the car with your friends.

Metro A and bus 551

By public transportation the line to use is the 551, which links Anagnina station, the end of metro line A, with Ciampino. The venue's website also lists the N1 night line: check times and last runs before setting off on the public transportation information service.

By train

From Roma Termini, regional trains stop at Ciampino station in about 15 minutes. The station isn't next to the club: you do the last stretch by taxi or with a ride.

By taxi

Rome's taxi switchboard answers at 060609. On Friday night, at closing time at 23:30, it's best to book in advance.

Another well-known fact, and yet not often mentioned

It's known that Mammadimerda was born as a blog and then became a social media phenomenon. Less often remembered is that the project also had a concrete political dimension. Francesca Fiore and Sarah Malnerich promoted the #NONCISIAMO campaign and then #HALFOFIT, which reached the Chamber of Deputies under the name #ILGIUSTOMEZZO. The irony about imperfect motherhood, in short, was also the starting point for bringing the difficulties of working mothers into public debate.

Another rarely mentioned fact concerns the tone. The first book, Non sei sola, was described as putting forward a manifesto of "Mammamerdismo," with a comedy at once subtle and coarse that ends up resembling a small philosophical school. Behind the joke there's a precise idea: freeing women from the guilt that comes with every family choice.

The third fact concerns the party. Presented by Orion as the first Italian night devoted only to women, the Non Farcela Party is a traveling format that turns a community born online into an in-person meeting. It's a rare trajectory: from posts to the dance floor, by way of books and the halls of Parliament.

The right photo to take at the Non Farcela Party at Orion Live Club on November 27, 2026

The right photo at the Non Farcela Party isn't the selfie in front of the bathroom mirror. It's the room singing: raised arms, mouths open on the chorus of a song everyone knows, the stage lights in the background. It's the image that really tells the story of the night, where the audience is the show.

To get it, it's best to stand slightly higher, at the back or the sides of the room, and wait for the moment a song everyone loves starts. No flash: in a club it flattens the scene and bothers the singers.

The second photo is with your friends, before going in, in front of the night's poster with the neon title and the two authors drawn on it. It's the memento to share the next day.

The third, if the chance comes, is with Mdm1 and Mdm2 on stage or at the end of the night. Then the phone goes in your bag: a party this short is better lived with your hands free, for dancing and singing with perfect strangers.

Ciampino and the surroundings

Ciampino is the town southeast of Rome known mainly for its airport, but it's also the gateway to the Castelli Romani. If you want to turn the night into a weekend out of town, there are many options a few kilometers away.

The Castelli Romani

From the Orion area you quickly reach Marino, Frascati and the Castelli Romani Park. The Saturday after the party is a good chance for lunch out of town.

The Appian Way

Toward Rome, the Appia Antica Park and the Villa of the Quintilii offer a morning of open-air archaeology.

Cinecittà

Cinecittà is on Via Tuscolana, reachable by the same metro A used to get to Orion.

Some important events that happened here in history

Orion's story is that of a suburban club that became one of the reference points for live music in the Rome area. Born as a multitasking club, with the idea of hosting music in all its styles, over the years it has built a program ranging from rock to electronic music, from international pop to metal. The archive of past events published on the official website starts from 2011.

Location played a decisive role. In Rome, mid-size live music has often found a home on the edges of the city, where spaces are large, neighbors far away and parking possible. Outside the Raccordo, in the southern outskirts, a musical geography parallel to the tourist one took shape. With a 1,200-square-meter floor, Orion sits between the small club and the arena.

In autumn 2026 the club's lineup is packed: Fulci on October 2, and then, among others, Belle and Sebastian on November 29, two days after the Non Farcela Party. The Mammadimerda party adds a different night to this story: not a concert, but a community of women meeting to sing. It's proof that a club can also be a gathering place, as well as a concert hall.

Who has been at the Non Farcela Party at Orion Live Club on November 27, 2026

On the Orion stage, on November 27, are Francesca Fiore and Sarah Malnerich, Mdm1 and Mdm2, the authors of Mammadimerda, who host the night. Any guests aren't listed on the official event pages.

Behind them is a community: the readers of the blog born in 2016, the social media followers, the women who supported the #NONCISIAMO and #HALFOFIT campaigns, the readers of Non sei sola and Non farcela come stile di vita. And there's Giuditta Matteucci, who illustrated the first book. They are, in a sense, the real protagonists: the night's playlist is built with their songs.

More generally, Orion hosts international bands that choose a mid-size club for their Rome date, bands from the Italian scene and dance nights. The autumn calendar includes Belle and Sebastian, expected two days later, on November 29: a name very far from karaoke among friends, which shows how broad the range of the programming is.

And, ideally, Rome passes through too: Sarah Malnerich is Roman, and the party is a homecoming for her.

Accessibility, age and practical tips

For information on accessibility at Orion Live Club and on spaces reserved for people with disabilities, it's best to contact the venue at the details published on its official website, including the number 06 89013645.

Age

The seller lists the night as open to all ages. The party is still designed for an adult audience: if you're thinking of bringing a teenage daughter, as the official page suggests when it speaks of mothers and sisters, you'd do well to check the rules for minors with the venue.

What to bring

ID, the ticket on a charged phone, a small bag, comfortable shoes, a coat for waiting outdoors. If you want to suggest a song, do it beforehand, through the community.

Where to eat before the party

The Orion area is made up of workshops and industry, with few places to eat in the immediate vicinity. With doors at 20:00, my advice is to have dinner before leaving Rome, or to stop along the way: central Ciampino and the nearby Castelli Romani towns offer trattorias, pizzerias and fraschette serving the area's traditional food. If you arrive by metro A you'll find places and bars around Anagnina station. After closing at 23:30 few kitchens are open nearby. A late pizza among friends is easier to find on the way back into the city.

A party at the end of November

Late November is when the indoor nightlife season is in full swing. November 27 is a Friday, the perfect day for a party that ends early: you leave work, have dinner, sing for two and a half hours and are home before one. If you're coming from outside Rome, Saturday morning is free for a walk in the Castelli or on the Appian Way. The same week the city offers many club concerts. The Non Farcela Party is the only one designed specifically for women. At the end of November it's cold in the evening and the damp makes itself felt: a coat for waiting at the entrance and for the walk to the car is essential, while inside the club, between singing and dancing, the temperature rises quickly. It's best to leave heavy jackets in the car, if you drive, or use the coat check if the venue offers one.

Who the Non Farcela Party is for

The Non Farcela Party is for women who want a night with nothing to prove: mothers, daughters, sisters, friends, colleagues, readers of Mammadimerda and even those who have never heard of the blog.

For those who love to sing

If you love karaoke and songs to scream in chorus, you'll find the ideal night. You don't need to be able to sing: the point is precisely not making it, and laughing together at the wrong notes.

For those looking for a different night

If you don't like clubs, smoke, late hours and music that's too loud, you'll find a rare format: a short party, with familiar songs and an audience that joins in. In our view it's the most successful aspect of the idea.

Mdm1 and Mdm2 and a few hundred strangers ready to sing the same songs will do the rest.
