Aula Magna Arzobispal

Aula Magna Arzobispal is a theater located within the Cathedral of Concepción designed to hold 342 spectators. The seating divides into a main floor with 220 seats and an upper section with 122 seats, with the hall equipped with central heating and professional stage equipment.

The theater was built in 1945 following a donation from the Catholic Action organization and served as an extension to the Cathedral. This project created a dedicated space for cultural and academic events within the religious complex.

The space hosts artistic performances, concerts, and academic events, with its connection to the Cathedral giving it a special cultural role. Visitors experience a sense of tradition when attending cultural gatherings in this religiously rooted setting.

Access to the theater is through the Cathedral complex, so visits work best during the opening hours of the building. Your experience depends on what events are scheduled, so checking ahead about performances or gatherings is helpful.

The seats in the upper level still display the original emblems of Catholic Action carved into their backs. These details are visible proof of the hall's origins and reward a closer look during your visit.
