Teatre Principal

Teatre Principal is a performance venue in central Palma de Mallorca with multiple halls designed for opera, concerts, and theatrical productions. The building features a neoclassical exterior and interior spaces arranged to accommodate diverse artistic presentations.

The theatre was founded in 1857 and later underwent major reconstruction following a destructive fire that damaged much of its structure. This rebuilding process preserved its architectural character while restoring it as a key cultural institution.

The venue plays a central role in the city's cultural life, drawing audiences for opera, concerts, and theatrical performances. Its shows bring together locals and visitors around shared artistic experiences.

Book tickets online in advance or purchase them directly at the box office during your visit. The theatre's central location makes it convenient to reach, with programming available throughout the year.

The venue has carried different names throughout its history, beginning as Princess Theatre and later becoming Prince of Asturias Theatre before settling on its present name. These changes reflect the shifting cultural and political contexts of different eras.
