This grand theater (circa 1908) known for acoustics hosts classical music, operas, ballets & tours.The Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires is one of the world's most renowned opera houses, rivaling La Scala, the Paris Opera, and the Metropolitan. Opened in 1908, it replaced its original 1857 location and quickly became a cultural hub. By 1925, it established its own orchestra, ballet, choir, and production workshops, enabling independent, city-funded seasons. Over its 110+ years, it has hosted legendary artists like Maria Callas, Plácido Domingo, Rudolf Nureyev, and Herbert von Karajan, as well as composers like Richard Strauss and Camille Saint-Saëns. Restored to its original grandeur in 2010, the Teatro Colón remains a global symbol of excellence in opera, dance, and music, and a proud emblem of Argentine culture.
