Curated European Open-Air Venues
Europe holds an unmatched legacy of historical stone theatres, fortified ramparts, and seaside bastions that transition into grand outdoor projection spaces each summer.
Pula Arena Roman Amphitheatre
Built during the reign of Emperor Vespasian, Pula Arena stands as one of the six largest remaining Roman amphitheatres globally. During July and August, the central stone dust oval becomes an international cinema hub accommodating up to 5,000 spectators under the stars.
The facility uses an acoustically transparent perforated canvas hung within a temporary structural truss that leaves zero contact marks on the millennium-old limestone arches.
