La Media Torta, Open-air theatre in Bogotá, Colombia
La Media Torta features a semi-circular design that accommodates up to 7,000 spectators for outdoor performances in the heart of Bogotá.
The British Council donated this contemporary amphitheater in 1938, following Jorge Eliécer Gaitán's vision to create entertainment spaces for new city residents.
The venue regularly presents local music concerts, dance performances, and theatrical productions, supporting the development of Colombian performing arts.
Located at Calle 18 #1-05E in Bogotá, the theater maintains an active schedule of events managed by Idartes throughout the year.
The circular structure earned its name 'The Half Cake' due to its architectural form, which provides natural acoustics for outdoor performances.
