This arena is similar to the Coloseum in Rome but on a much smaller, better preserved scale> It is is definitely worth a visit. Conveniently located in Provence, it is an easy drive from either Les Baux or Aix en Provence. We really found the audio guide added a lot to our enjoyment of the grounds and exploring the various areas. They still have concerts that are held there and I can only imagine how amazing it would be to experience one!

This ancient Roman theater is completely intact and spectacles are held here still! When you walk around the seats and gaze at the stage, you can imagine Roman actors being on that stage in antiquity. The halls in the theater are intact and you fell the same experience as Romans did. Thanks to the French for not destroying this or altering it during the ages, so we can marvel at it today. Orange is a beautiful sunny town.

Fortuitously in Orange on 12 June when a free concert was held in the Théâtre Antique. I believe you would normally have to pay to enter. It was very pleasant to sit in the amphitheatre and sing along to the music in the warm evening. Many thanks to the Ville d'Orange! Climbed up the hill behind the Theatre next day to enjoy the view and to see the arena in daylight from a different angle. Well worth the climb!

Very well preserved and large ancient theatre in the heart of Orange. There is an informative short film to view before you start your exploration. It must be amazing to come to a performance here, but we enjoyed wandering about. The old wall is huge and climbing up the seating area gives some great views. Some of the "rooms" off the tunnels featured interesting audio/visual presentations on various aspects of the theatre's history. There is a partial excavation of an old temple also on the site. Unfortunately for us the infamous "Mistral" came up that afternoon and it was so strong and so cold that exploring the theatre further became difficult.The entrance fee included a visit to the town museum just across the road. We were there on a Sunday so the town of Orange itself was very very quiet and little was open.

A very well preserved theater of impressive magnitude and engineering especially when looking from the furthest rows.Logistics are a little more challenging when handling a baby in a push-chair, but well worth the effort.

Visited in winter, so it was really quiet and easy to get around. The late afternoon light fell on the theatre wall and was stunning to see and wonderful to imagine performances 2000 years ago!

Sit on the steps of the theatre and let your imagination fly. What performances took place, what did audiences experience over the centuries? Then wander around, feel the textures of the ancient stone, see the patterns of the lichen on the rock.

this is an interesting old coliseum in the epicenter of Orange. Few left like it in the world. Tickets at 9.50 Euros seem high as there is not a lot of explanation around anything but I would still recommend it.

This is a must for anyone interested in history, especially Roman history. The audio guide, provided as part of the entry fee, is excellent in providing a wealth of information on what it is you're seeing and in helping imagine what it must have been like when it was in use by the Romans. If you're anywhere in the area this is time well spent.
