Culture
Alicante is host to a year-round range of cultural activities. Teatro Principal de Alicante, Plaza Ruperto Chapí (tel: (965) 20 31 00; website: www.teatroprincipalicante.com) is the main venue in town for concerts, theatre, dance, opera and other cultural festivals. Another venue for more modern concerts is the Plaza de Toros (the bull ring), Plaza de España 7 and 8 (tel: (965) 21 68 88; website: www.alicante-ayto.es/plazadetoros/) but events here are less regular.
There are several cinemas, from the modern multi-screen complexes such as Cines Warner Lusomundo Panoramis, Zona Muelle Poniente (tel: (965) 98 86 00) to the ‘old-style’ of the Minicines Astoria, in the old district, Plaza del Carmen (tel: (965) 21 56 66).
