About this venue
Coliseum da Coruña is more than an arena—it’s a distinctive, multi-purpose landmark for large-scale shows in Galicia. Opened in 1991 and designed by architect Arata Isozaki, it was conceived as a flexible venue that can quickly shift between concerts, sports, and fairs, with a capacity of up to around 11,000 spectators depending on the setup.
Inside, the bowl-style layout keeps sightlines clean and the atmosphere close to the stage or court. Thanks to its adaptable configurations, events often feel surprisingly “intimate” for a venue of this size, while the lighting and sound infrastructure supports modern productions with clarity and impact. Visitors also appreciate the practical flow, with food and drink points and entry/exit areas designed for smooth crowd movement.
You’ll find the venue at Rúa Francisco Pérez Carballo 2, 15008 A Coruña, Spain, in the EXPOCoruña area next to the Carrefour shopping centre. If you’re arriving by car, the easiest option is to use the Carrefour parking area and follow the signage on foot to the main entrance; public-transport stops serving this district are also nearby.

About the city
A Coruña, an Atlantic jewel of Galicia, blends a relaxed seaside rhythm with the energy of a city that lives for concerts, sport, and major productions. Thanks to a strong cultural scene and modern venues, visitors can easily find an event that fits their taste, whether they are after top-tier music, family spectacles, or intense sporting clashes. The city is compact, visually striking, and full of spots where, before or after the show, you can enjoy the sea, the harbour lights, and local gastronomy.
Getting in is straightforward, whether you land at Aeropuerto de A Coruña (Alvedro) or arrive by train at Estación de A Coruña–San Cristovo. For moving around, rely on the city buses operated by Compañía de Tranvías de La Coruña, along with taxis and walkable routes that, in the centre, are often the quickest option. Connections to the main event locations are very convenient, making it easy to plan your trip to Coliseum da Coruña, Palacio de la Ópera, or Estadio de Riazor without unnecessary stress.
Once your tickets are sorted, use the city as a sightseeing bonus: stroll to Plaza de María Pita and explore Ciudad Vieja, then continue along the Paseo Marítimo with constant Atlantic views. Torre de Hércules is unmissable as well, a city icon and the perfect backdrop for a short trip before an evening programme. At any time of day, it is easy to add a break on the Riazor and Orzán beaches or in one of the bars and restaurants serving seafood specialties, so the event experience naturally becomes a city experience too.
