Teatro del Lago

A copper-roofed wooden theater built on Llanquihue Lake, one of South America's most important performing arts centers. Guided tours and performances are both available.

Completed in 2010, the building is made of local timber with a copper roof. The hall's floor-to-ceiling windows face the lake and the volcano, and it is regarded as a cultural landmark of southern Chile. Throughout the year it hosts classical music, opera, ballet and jazz performances, and offers an architectural tour of about 45 minutes (reservation required, fee charged). There is a café inside with excellent lake views. It sits on the lakefront in lower Frutillar, about a 5-minute walk from the pier. It is advisable to buy performance tickets in advance on the official website.
