Plaza de la Revolución, Central square and music venue in Managua, Nicaragua

The Plaza de la Revolución functions as the main gathering space in Managua, featuring monuments, murals, and the Old Cathedral of Managua.

Established in 1899 under General José Santos Zelaya, the plaza transformed through decades of political changes and survived the 1972 earthquake that affected Managua.

The plaza contains the tomb of Sandinista commander Carlos Fonseca and displays numerous artworks representing Nicaragua's revolutionary heritage and national identity.

Located at Avenida Bolívar in the Área Monumental district, the plaza connects to major cultural institutions including the National Palace and Rubén Darío Theater.

The plaza serves dual purposes as both a political assembly point and performance space, where local artists present concerts beneath the preserved ruins.
