Théâtre national (Teatro Nacional)

• The National Theater is an ideal spot for art and culture lovers.
• A gift and coffee shop is located just off the lobby.
• Tours are offered in English and Spanish.
• The theater is wheelchair-accessible.

The National Theater is located on Avenida Segunda between Calle 3 and Calle 5 in the center of downtown San José. Walking is one of the best ways to get around the compact city as traffic can get chaotic and parking can be difficult to find. Public buses are plentiful and inexpensive. Be aware that drivers don’t often speak Spanish and they accept only local currency. The closest stops are Sabana Estadio and Barrio Luján, on opposing corners across the way.
