Das in der römischen Antike gebaute Amphitheater umfasst rund 50 Rängen ca. 12 000 Zuschauer. Im Unterschied zu den anderen Theaterbauten in der Nachbarschaft sind die Sitze nicht an den Abhang eines Berges errichtet worden, sondern sind freistehend auf einem Gewölbe gebaut. Währenddessen hier zu Beginn wahrscheinlich vor allem Theatervorführungen waren, ging man später dazu über Kämpfe auszutragen. Heutzutage wird das Amphitheater Side für Ballett- und Musikfestivals sowie für Theateraufführungen genutzt.
