Casalattico (Campanian: Casale) is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Frosinone in the Italian region of Lazio. The village is located about 110 kilometres (68 mi) southeast of Rome and about 30 kilometres (19 mi) east of Frosinone.
It is home to a summer Irish festival celebrating the local families that moved to Ireland with the twinning of the town with Naas in County Kildare. The festival hosts Irish folk music and local artists. The nearby Melfa river, a tributary of the Liri, flows in the commune. The town houses the local commune offices and postal services. The commune is bounded by the communes of Atina and Casalvieri on one side and Colle San Magno and Terelle, Arpino, and Santopadre on the other. Casalattico is surrounded by mountains reaching up to 1700 metres.
