VISCOSA CULTURAL FACTORY

Viscosa Cultural Factory seeks to breathe new life into historical industrial heritage, creating fresh value while offering not just entertainment, but a truly immersive experience. Throughout history—from an artificial silk factory to a fish processing plant, and now a cultural hub—Viscosa has always brought people together. Today, it does so through creativity.

THEATRE

The Viscosa Theatre delivers an unforgettable experience, from classics to contemporary works.

The Silk Hall, a black-box-style venue with rugged limestone walls, seats up to 250 people, depending on the stage setup. In addition, the entire complex serves as a unique backdrop for street-theater-style performances.
