Teatre Principal de Maó, Opera house in Maó, Spain
The Teatre Principal de Maó contains four levels and accommodates 847 seats within its Italian-style theater architecture designed by Giovanni Palagi.
Following its inauguration in 1829, the theater underwent substantial improvements throughout the 19th century, including the addition of a neoclassical facade in 1845.
The theater organizes an annual Opera Week featuring performances from international artists specializing in bel canto repertoire and classical compositions.
Located at Costa d'en Deià 40, the theater presents a yearly program of opera, dance performances, concerts, and theatrical productions for Menorca residents.
