Karl Marx Theatre, Performance venue in Miramar, Cuba
The Karl Marx Theatre is located on Avenida 1ra in Havana and can seat around 5,500 people. The building operates as both a cinema and a venue for concerts and theatrical productions.
The theater originally opened in 1949 as Teatro Blanquita and was renamed in 1975 following the Cuban Revolution. This change reflected a shift in how the building was used and understood by the public.
This venue serves as a major stage for Cuban musicians and international performers. The shows here reflect what matters in the city's arts scene today.
The venue sits in the Miramar neighborhood along Avenida 1ra between streets 8 and 10. Plan some extra time to explore the surrounding area and get a feel for the district.
In its early years, the building included an ice skating rink that operated during the middle of the 20th century. This unusual feature has completely disappeared and is rarely mentioned today.
