About
Faits rapides: Imagine stepping into an outdoor arena that seats over 15,000 people, echoing with the voices of ancient Roman crowds. Its perfectly preserved elliptical shape hosts some of the grandest opera performances under the starry Italian sky.
Points forts: Experience the thrill of amazing acoustics that let even whispers on stage be heard from the top rows. Every summer, a famous opera festival fills the air with passion, transforming stone tiers into a vibrant sea of culture and music lovers.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes since you’ll be walking on ancient stone steps and uneven surfaces.
- Arrive early or late in the day to avoid peak crowds and capture better photos without tourists.
- Skip the standard guided tours if you prefer exploring with an audio guide that allows you to set your own pace.
- Bring a light jacket for evening performances; it can get chilly after sunset in the open arena.
