The Roman amphitheatre was discovered in the area of Kom-El-Dikka. It is small but well preserved and has twelve semi-circular marble terraces. A number of columns and sections of mosaic flooring can still be seen.
In the past, it was probably used for the most diverse spectacles. Nowadays, it accommodates the summer activities. These are performances of Arab music which take place in July and August.
Kaitbay Castle and Falls Garden are two more quite striking sites where occasionally performances are staged.
