Main Theatre of Burgos

The theatre incorporates all the innovations known up to that point. The auditorium is horseshoe-shaped with four floors and five rows of boxes. The exterior is Italianate in the composition of the openings and the palace-like appearance.

Its aesthetic is in the academicist style of the reign of Isabella II, which is why it has been called “Elizabethan style”.
In 1886, the Polisón building was added, owned by the Recreation Hall Society.

Throughout the year, the theatre offers a varied programme of quality dance, theatre, and music; additionally, in the building, we find a library, an exhibition hall, and a conference room. It was renovated in 1997.
