3 Best Performing Arts Venues in San Angel, Mexico City

One of the most stately performance spaces in Mexico City, the Hellenic Cultural Center was constructed in 1954 using portions of a Spanish cloister and chapel from the 12th and 14th centuries as well as a baroque Guanajuato facade from the 17th century. The stately building became a cultural center in 1973 and showcases a wide range of popular plays, musicals, and festivals. It adjoins the handsome bookstore and café, Cafebrería El Péndulo.

In the same converted historic building that houses Museo Soumayo in Plaza Loreta, this inviting indie cineplex shows a steady roster of indie films and retrospectives.
