About Piazza dell'Anfiteatro

Piazza dell'Anfiteatro in Lucca is a living piece of history. Built on the elliptical footprint of Lucca’s second-century Roman amphitheater, this public square hosts concerts, markets, and community events without a formal seating chart. Its storied past blends with today’s vibrant cultural scene, making it a must-visit for travelers seeking authentic Lucca experiences. We’ve got you covered with practical details on seating, parking, transit, and nearby places to stay and eat.

Whether you’re catching a show during the Lucca Summer Festival or strolling through a seasonal market, secure your seats and plan ahead. The area offers a range of nearby hotels and dining options, including the Anfiteatro Bed and Breakfast just steps from the square. For parking and transit, Lucca’s historic center is best reached by outside-the-walls parking with shuttle options into town. If you’re visiting for a performance, consider arriving early to soak in the ambience and secure a comfortable spot along the square’s perimeter, since there isn’t a formal seating map. We’re here to help you navigate and lock in your plans with trusted local guidance.
