Teatro Bolívar, Art Deco theatre in Historic Center, Quito, Ecuador
The Teatro Bolívar features a grand auditorium with a capacity of 2400 seats, making it one of the largest performance venues in Ecuador.
Inaugurated in April 1933, the theatre underwent a major restoration in 1997, but suffered extensive damage from a fire two years later.
The theatre maintains an art academy offering programs in watercolor, oil painting, and sculpture while presenting theatrical performances and concerts throughout the year.
Located at Pasaje Espejo between Guayaquil and Flores streets, the Teatro Bolívar opens Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
The building incorporates Art Deco architectural elements, representing the most substantial example of this design style found in Ecuador.
