Anfiteatro Martín Fierro, Open-air theatre in Paseo del Bosque, La Plata, Argentina.
Anfiteatro Martín Fierro is an open-air theater located in Paseo del Bosque with a classical architectural design. The oval-shaped venue features three monumental arches and a colonnade around its perimeter, creating a traditional amphitheater layout.
The theater replaced the former Teatro del Lago when it opened in 1949 with an official inauguration attended by President Juan Domingo Perón and Eva Perón. This marked a significant change in how the city's cultural and public events were hosted.
The theater serves as a gathering place for performances and public events that connect the community. Visitors experience different types of shows throughout the year, from theatrical productions to concerts and local celebrations.
The theater can be reached through a bridge leading to the main entrance, or through separate access points on Nicolas Cuccolo and Juan Prossi streets. Getting there is straightforward, and the location is well integrated into the Paseo del Bosque park area.
A life-sized statue of Carlos Gardel stands at the theater entrance, donated in 1984 by the Popular Tribute Commission. This sculpture honors the legendary tango artist and is a detail that often goes unnoticed by visitors passing through.
