Teatre Poliorama Tours
3 Reviews
Located on lively Las Ramblas, Barcelona’s Teatre Poliorama first opened in 1899 as a cinema, then became a theater. Housed in the Royal Academy of Arts and Sciences, the theater has been renovated to its former glory and continues to be a center of Catalan arts and culture, hosting regular stage productions and theatrical performances.
The Basics
Teatre Poliorama was designed by Josep Domènech i Estapà, with a capacity of 705 seats. The intimate venue is an ideal location to take in a flamenco or opera performance. Musicals and comedies round out the theater’s offerings.
The best way to enjoy Teatre Poliorama is to take in one of its many stage performances. To learn more about the theater, including its history and interesting anecdotes, join a guided tour of the theater—available to groups—which includes access to the stage and nonpublic areas, such as dressing rooms.
