Arena del Sole, National heritage theater in Via Indipendenza, Bologna, Italy

Arena del Sole features a neoclassical facade with an inscription stating 'The place given to daytime shows' on its exterior walls.

Construction began in 1800 on the former site of a Dominican convent, leading to the theater's official inauguration on July 5, 1810.

The venue contains two performance spaces: the main Leo de Berardinis hall with 896 seats and the smaller Thierry Salmon hall with 179 seats.

Located near the Giuseppe Garibaldi Monument, the theater remains open throughout the year with regular theatrical productions and performances.

Originally designed as an open-air venue for daytime performances, the theater operated exclusively from Easter until September during its early years.
