The Roman theater of Augusta Raurica was built in the 1st century AD and is one of the best-preserved ancient theaters north of the Alps. It could seat around 10,000 spectators and was used for plays, speeches, and public events. Today it is once again used for concerts and performances.

Here, in the Augusta Raurica theatre, concerts and performances take place regularly. The theater was one of the focal points of Roman life and the center of Augusta Raurica. It once offered space for 10,000 people.
