Teatro Mediterraneo

Teatro Mediterraneo is a theatre in the Fuorigrotta district located within a large exhibition complex and features a neoclassical facade with fourteen travertine columns. The building seats around 820 people and includes a stage equipped with a rotating platform for different productions.

The building opened in 1940 and later survived World War II bombings before being restored and reopened in 1952. After its comeback, it quickly became a venue for major cultural events in the city.

The venue became a center for Neapolitan musical performances and theatrical works over several decades. Today it continues to draw artists and audiences interested in Italian dramatic traditions.

The theatre sits within a larger visitor complex with several museums and exhibition spaces nearby. It makes sense to plan for a full afternoon if you want to see both the theatre and explore the surrounding attractions.

The theatre survived bombings during World War II and was returned to its original state afterward. This resilience makes it a rare example of preserved architecture from that period in the city.
