Teatro Centro Cívico Eloy Alfaro, Municipal theatre in Parque Forestal, Guayaquil, Ecuador.
The Teatro Centro Cívico Eloy Alfaro contains a main hall with two levels covering 6,400 square meters and two smaller theaters for different performances.
Construction of the theater started in 1970 during José María Velasco Ibarra's government and underwent multiple administrative changes before opening in 1990.
The venue serves as the permanent home for the Guayaquil Symphony Orchestra and has presented numerous operas including La Bohème and Così fan tutte.
