Teatro Castro Alves: The Heart of Salvador's Performing Arts

Getting There

• Bus

  If you are in the Pelourinho area, go to the nearest bus stop and take a bus heading toward Campo Grande. Look for buses marked 'Campo Grande' or 'Barra.' The ride should take around 20-30 minutes depending on traffic. Get off at the 'Praça Dois de Julho' stop. From there, walk a short distance towards Praça Dois de Julho where Teatro Castro Alves is located.

• Metro

  If you're near the Metro station, take Line 1 (the blue line) toward the 'Lapa' station. At the Lapa station, transfer to a bus that goes to Campo Grande or take a taxi from there, as it's about a 15-minute walk. The bus will drop you off at Praça Dois de Julho, right in front of Teatro Castro Alves.

• Walking

  From the historic Pelourinho district, you can walk to Teatro Castro Alves. Head southwest on Rua das Laranjeiras, then turn left onto Rua do Carmo. Continue on Rua do Carmo until you reach Rua da Misericórdia. Follow this street until you reach Praça Dois de Julho, where the theater is located. This walk should take about 20-25 minutes.

• Taxi or Ride-sharing

  For a more comfortable option, you can take a taxi or use a ride-sharing app like Uber. Simply enter 'Teatro Castro Alves' or the address 'Praça Dois de Julho, s/n - Campo Grande' in the app. The ride will take approximately 10-15 minutes depending on your starting point in Salvador.
