Roman Amphitheatre and Isaac Peral house to open: What's new for Cartagena tourism in 2025

The city continues to add new cultural and tourist attractions each year

The famous port city of Cartagena is quickly turning into a tourist hotspot as a record number of tourists have come this year, and more is to come next year for the Cartagena Puerto de Culturas project, as it will incorporate the Isaac Peral House (one of the city’s greatest and most eagerly awaited projects) and the opening of the Roman Amphitheatre (a staple in the Cartagena tourist attractions).

Both attractions will have a fixed entry system, which will be added to the current impressive list of museums, interpretation centres and resources that tourists can visit in Cartagena: the Roman Theatre; the Forum District; the Fuerte de Navidad; the Punic Wall Interpretation Centre and the Castillo de la Concepción; the Civil War Shelters; the Casa de la Fortuna; and the Augusteum, as well as the catamaran, the lift and the tourist bus.

The opening of these two new spaces is the main feature of the Cartagena Puerto de Culturas budget for 2025, which comes to 2,414,600 euros – a growth of 3.9% compared to 2024.

The increase in the budget is mainly concentrated in the transfer from the City Council to the consortium, which grows by 70,000 euros to reach 590,000 euros and whose increase will be used to cover the opening of the Casa Natal de Isaac Peral and the management of the Amphitheatre.

Furthermore, sales revenue are forecast for 2025 at 1,824,600 euros , i.e. 6,700 euros more than this year, taking into account, on the one hand, that, although the rates have been updated, income has been lost from free opening timetables, which between July 23 and October 8 have meant 24,278.50 euros less income for the Consortium.

In total, since July 23, 4,474 visitors have had free access to these spaces, which is equivalent to tickets worth 24,000 euros, money which has stopped being collected and of which just over 18,000 euros correspond exclusively to the Roman Theatre.
