Afundación Theatre, Opera house in Vigo, Spain.
The Afundación Theatre is an opera house in Vigo with impressive architecture and an elegant interior that seats many spectators. The auditorium was designed so that sound carries well from every location in the hall.
The theatre opened in 1927 as a replacement for the Rosalia de Castro Theatre, which was destroyed in 1910. This new building brought a modern opera house to the city and helped restore its cultural life.
The theatre serves as a major venue for opera, concerts, and ballet performances throughout the year. It shapes the cultural life of the city by hosting diverse artistic productions that residents and visitors experience together.
The theatre is located at Policarpo Sanz 13 in Vigo and is easy to access. You can reserve tickets in advance through the website or by phone.
The architects Antonio Palacios Ramilo and Desiderio Pernas designed specific interior features to ensure that sound quality is optimal from every seat. This careful acoustic planning still makes the theatre special for concert audiences today.
