Teatro Nazionale is one of Milan’s best-known theatres, originally built in the 1920s and extensively renovated to meet the requirements of modern stage productions. Its contemporary main auditorium offers 1,437 seats across the stalls and gallery, while the enlarged stage can accommodate technically demanding musicals, theatre productions, concerts and other live events.
The interior is designed to provide good views of the stage and balanced acoustics throughout different sections of the auditorium. Spacious, bright foyers make arrival and movement before a performance more comfortable, while the refreshment areas and first-floor bar provide a convenient place to relax before the show or during the interval.
The theatre is located at Via Giordano Rota 1, Milan, Italy, directly beside Piazza Piemonte. The entrance is a short walk from Wagner station on metro line M1, while tram 16 and bus routes 61 and 67 stop nearby at Piazza Piemonte. Visitors arriving by car can use public garages in the surrounding area, while broader information about travelling around Milan is provided further down the page.
