Teatro Municipal, Opera house in historic center, Lima, Peru
The Teatro Municipal presents a neoclassical facade with three busts of classical musicians: Wagner, Beethoven, and Liszt mounted above grand marble staircases.
Built in 1915 as Teatro Forero, the building was purchased by Lima Municipality in 1929 and underwent extensive reconstruction after a devastating fire in 1998.
The theater houses Peru's National Symphony Orchestra and maintains a schedule of operas, concerts, ballets, and theatrical performances throughout the year.
Located in Lima District, the venue offers online ticket purchases through the official Tickets Lima website and includes additional parking facilities.
The performance hall incorporates Italian Renaissance design elements alongside modern anti-seismic technology and updated fireproofing systems installed during its 2010 renovation.
