About this venue
Centro de Convenciones Teatro Leguia is a versatile convention and live-event venue housed in a building with a distinctive theatrical character. Its main hall covers approximately 550 m² and features a high interior with a perimeter mezzanine, providing clear sightlines toward the stage from different parts of the room. Capacity varies according to the event configuration, with roughly 800 guests in a standing concert setup, around 600 in auditorium-style seating and about 480 with tables and chairs. This flexibility makes the venue suitable for concerts, cultural programs, corporate gatherings and other live events.
Inside, the experience is focused on keeping the audience relatively close to the stage. The venue is equipped with professional sound and stage-lighting systems as well as a large LED screen, supporting both live music and more production-intensive events. The mezzanine and comparatively compact main hall create a more intimate atmosphere than a large arena, while seating, standing areas and additional services may vary depending on the organizer and event format.
The venue is located at Av. Arequipa 834, Lima, Peru, directly on one of the city's major avenues. The entrance can be approached from Av. Arequipa itself, making taxi and ride-hailing drop-offs at the frontage a practical option; parking arrangements may depend on the individual event and nearby public parking facilities.

About the city: Lima
Lima, Peru’s coastal capital, is both an energetic cultural hub and an important city destination for concerts, sports, and major public spectacles. With the pulse of a metropolis where history meets contemporary urban life, the city attracts visitors who want to experience an event while also discovering the authentic atmosphere of the Pacific coast. Add a diverse culinary scene and a wide range of accommodation—from stylish hotels to more budget-friendly options—and Lima makes trip planning easy whether you’re coming for a single show or a full weekend of activities.
One of Lima’s biggest advantages is its practical connectivity and straightforward logistics for reaching the city’s key areas. The main gateway for most travelers is Aeropuerto Internacional Jorge Chávez, and once you arrive, getting around is simple thanks to the primary public-transport systems. The fast bus corridor Metropolitano and Línea 1 del Metro de Lima y Callao form the backbone of mobility across the city, complemented by Corredores Complementarios and a network of local bus routes. In the city center, Estación Central on the Metropolitano is a common starting point, and by combining lines and transfers you can easily plan a smooth trip to arenas and stadiums without wasting time.
If you’re traveling for an event, Lima also delivers an excellent “bonus” before or after the program. A stroll through the Centro Histórico around Plaza Mayor offers a touch of colonial charm, while Miraflores and Barranco are known for oceanfront promenades, viewpoints, and lively streets filled with cafés. For a slower pace, there are parks and city walkways, and the Pacific view from the coastal cliffs is often the detail that turns a trip into a complete experience.
