THIS CITY DOES NOT SLEEP!

Buenos Aires has always been famous for its incredible cultural offer.

Museums, cinemas, theatres and shows provide an unlimited variety of options for entertainment.
Cinema and theatre are the most favorite activities chosen by “porteños”. There are 170 theatres and more than 200 cinemas.

To get tickets, you can buy them at the individual venues or at centralised ticket agencies (carteleras) in the centre, where discounts at restaurants, theatre and cinema tickets can be obtained at discounted prices, for example Cartelera, Corrientes 1382 (Lorange Shopping Mall). Theatre tickets are available up to 6 says days in advance at the box office starting on Monday. You also can pre-book your theatre tickets by phone: (011) 4272-5058 Mon. to Fri., from 11am to 8 pm.
