THE TAP AREA
Tarraco Arena Plaça (TAP) is one of the most innovative projects
in southern Europe, a multi-purpose site located in a flagship
building in Tarragona that has been renovated, remodeled and
transformed into a unique facility available to the inhabitants of
Tarragona and all domestic and foreign visitors.
Located in Tarragona’s old bullring, of a modernist architecture and
built in 1883, it has preserved its exterior whilst the interior
has been turned into a modern facility covered by a 92 meter
diameter metal dome with a retractable central area. The particular
arena of this area has 55 meters diameter for a variable amount of
public depending on the type of event, considering 10,000 people
as the maximum approximate capacity.
The impressive central area, its vast capacity, its acoustics and
technological equipment make the TAP a state-of-the-art leisure
and cultural centre where the citizen’s interests converge with
the institutional and corporate interests. A unique opportunity to
place Tarragona on the scene of important events.
