A little different from the Colosseum and other amphitheaters because it lacks the basements. Probably expanded on a Samnite era building, it could accommodate about 20000 spectators passionate about gladiatorial fights or shows with exotic animals.
If you enter from the entrance of the same name you can not miss a ride.
Unfortunately, we saw it the day after the G7 and therefore with the gold in progress and so much confusion.

Visited as part of an intrepid tour for Rome to Amalfi. Our tour guide had arranged one of the Pompeii guides to talk us around the entire area and we came in here near the end. Worth a look. Like a mini coloseum. Spent only about 10 minutes here but that’s all you need.

This was my third visit to Pompeii, but I had never been there before, so it left a lasting impression on me. The three-tiered auditorium was said to have been able to accommodate about 20,000 people. However, I was amazed that such an arena was still buried in ashes. It's definitely worth a visit.

We were amazed how they restored this amphitheater in Pompeii! It was incredible to see & walk around on the main floor of this stadium. Interesting fact that Pink Floyd played a concert few years back & it must have been amazing to attend!

The Roman amphitheater is one of the symbols of this civilization, this example found in Pompeii held quite well, besides hosting meetings between gladiators and between gladiators and animals, it also hosted a naval battle, filling the lower part of the amphitheater with water.
A fresco also recalls how the amphitheater was closed for five years following clashes between Pompeians and Nocerini. Yesterday, as today, citizens needed panem et circemses so as not to make them too interested in the problems of everyday life and politics

In Rome's amphitheatre, you are well aware that it all ended quite some centuries ago. In Pompei's amphitheatre, you think that it was operating until the mid-1980's and then lost it's funding. But the council have kept it in good nick, just in case.

With a bit of effort, you could be taunting ursine in there like it was yesterday. If you're into that sort of thing....

It is located close to another entrance, not the main gate. You should really start your tour here. Hire a local private guide!

Very well preserved Roman Amfitheatre. Oldest known example in the world! Even older than the one in Rome.

Very nice to look at and well preserved, but would like to be able to sit in the stands.

Would also like read more about the amphitheatre- that is not just Pink Floyd related.

This is one of the highlights of the trips to Pompeii and it is tremendous to think this was built more 300 years before the Colosseum in Rome. Very evocative. As a fan I also enjoyed the added benefit of the Pink Floyd exhibition
