The grandiose building, which could accommodate the entire population of ancient Verona, was built in the 1st century AD and is the third largest in the world. Why go? Touch eternity. To sit on the same steps on which our distant ancestors sat. Admire the genius of the engineering ideas of the ancestors and the ability to implement these ideas. Paid entrance. Ticket 7 euros. If you are in Verona during the opera festivals (late June - early September), then a visit to the Arena can and should be combined with a visit to one of the performances of the festival.→
