Considered one of the five best theaters in the world for its size, acoustic and architecture, the Teatro Colón is a must for anyone visiting Buenos Aires. Whether to take a guided tour of its interiors; to see an Opera, a Ballet or a Concert; or just to appreciate the building from the outside, the Teatro Colón is really unmissable!
It was inaugurated in 1908 and since then, the greatest figures have passed through its stage: Arturo Toscanini, Maya Plissetskaya, Mikhail Barishnikov, María Callas, Luciano Pavarotti, Montserrat Caballe, Marta Argerich, Paloma Herrera and Astor Piazolla are just some of them.
The interior of the Theater is highly impressive: the frescoes on the inner side of the dome, the red corduroy armchairs, the huge main hall and the decoration in gold and scarlet form a truly majestic ensemble.
Addres: 628 Cerrito st.
