Discover the rich history of one of the most important theaters in Spain, where the illustrious Princess of Asturias awards is held.

The Campoamor Theater is the main opera house of Oviedo, where most of its important events and ceremonies are held. As the location of the awards ceremonies of the Princess of Asturias accolades, this 19th-century neoclassical structure plays a key role in the city’s culture. Appreciate the comfort and majestic décor of the theater, while attending an operatic performance.

Admire the arched white doors that adorn the lower third of the neoclassical façade, which is a different shade of grey from the upper parts. Gaze up at the intricate fixtures, windows and small balconies that lie beneath the upper pediment of the front of the building. See the theater at night, when it is illuminated with subtle lighting fixtures. The elegant building was constructed in 1892 and has become an icon of Oviedo. It has the capacity to accommodate 1,491 people.

Check the schedule in the building or online and attend one of the performances at this upscale opera house. Admire the grand orchestra section and look up at the high illuminated ceiling. After a show, visit some of the bars and restaurants that adorn the streets leading off from the theater.

Browse the galleries of the Center of Modern Art that lies within the theater. The complex is also known for the televised Princess of Asturias award ceremony, which honors distinguished figures in areas such as art, science, literature and sport.

Visit the theater’s box office to buy tickets. It is open to the public briefly at noon and then for a few hours in the late afternoon.

The Campoamor Theater is on the southwestern corner of the Plaza Carbayón in the center of Oviedo. Ride the bus to one of the many stops in this district and get around on foot. Make sure to see nearby sights such as the Casino de Asturias, the Campo de San Francisco park and the Palacio de Bernaldo Quirós.
