The Roman theatre is a nice little place to visit when in carthage it is nice to look at the history of the place and to understand of how long that place has been there for as it has stood the test of time. But if you are looking for lots of interaction bits, this wasn't the place to go. My children found it a bit boring as it was nothing much to see or do. I liked it because it's history. So please bear that in mind when visiting. But by the looks of it there is restoration work ongoing which could be one of the issues that was happening when I was there. Also there was lots of police around at the time. I don't know what was going on

Still used today for productions the Roman Theatre is well worth a visit. The view from the top tier is worth the climb. It should be noted that Tunisia is a touristic country mostly for its beaches and other sectors of the country are not so well-developed for international tourism. The two languages of Tunisia are Arabic and French (it was part of the French Empire), and the performances and ticketing are likely to be only in a mixture of Arabic and French. To book and attend a performance, one will likely need to navigate in French (or Arabic) - unless you book through your travel guide

Amazing Roman Theatre of Carthage that is part of the Tour ticket for other sites as well. The cost is 12 TND. Historic theatre that has had a lot of reconstruction and by the looks of it, is used for performances to this day. You can see remanints of the old theatre in various places around the site. It was still amazing to see and I really enjoyed my visit. I can imagine what this would have looked like way back in Anicent Carthage.

Out of the other sites I've gotten to visit, this one was the most anticlimactic. Mostly because it's in use to this day, there's a stage, different light and speaker gear around, signage for the venue (sound booth)... But I still think it's pretty cool. To think that an edifice built hundreds of years ago, which withstood the test of time, is used in modern times for more or less the same purpose. It's a quick visit.

The Park of the Roman Villas sits on Odeon Hill, northeast of the Carthage archaeological site. Upon buying a ticket to Carthage Archaeological Site, you have access to enter any of the 10 archaeological sites. Roman Theatre and Villa Romanies are among them. We stopped for few minutes to see the old houses, statues and ruins from era back to 2nd century. Beautiful theatre and many statues.

Amazing venue! Went to a Myrath concert here and was really impressed- very nice bathrooms, good security checks to get in, lots of food vendors selling drinks and snacks. Water was 2 dinar. The seats are stone so you butt might hurt after a while haha! Some people brought their own cushion to sit on. Good parking about 5min walk away, only 2 dinar for the whole event.
