About the space
Located on Calçada da Ajuda, this theatre was inaugurated in 1880, within the context of the 300th anniversary celebrations of the poet Luís de Camões’ death. Later, in 1911, it would be leased out to the Belém Clube, a cultural hub, for over a century.
In 2018, after serious remodelling works, executed by the architects Manuel Graça Dias and Egas José Vieira, LU.CA – Teatro Luis de Camões reopened, on World Children’s Day. The upgrading project won the Prémio Nacional de Reabilitação Urbana – Impacto Social award (National Urban Rehabilitation – Social Impact award).
