Tito Puente Amphitheatre
With a maximum capacity of just 3,000 people, the Tito Puente Amphitheatre is a frequent spot for smaller, more "intimate" concert events, and hosts numerous artists performing many styles of music. The venue is home of the Puerto Rico Heineken Jazz Festival each year, and is located adjacent to the Roberto Clemente Coliseum and Hiram Bithorn Stadium. Additionally, the venue is a popular location for graduations, weddings and other ceremonial events, as well as for photo shoots.
After a brief closure, due to damages caused by Hurricane Maria, the amphitheatre re-opened in mid December 2017 with a concert featuring Circo (and other artists) called Corona Fest x Nuestra Playas ("Corona Fest for our Beaches").
In December 2021, Latin jazz musician Eddie Palmieri performed at the amphitheatre, and in June 2022, reggaetón star Bad Bunny and Buscabulla performed there. On July 1, 2023, popular reggaetonera Young Miko headlined a concert at the venue.
