About

Fiona’s Theatre at the National Art Gallery of The Bahamas (NAGB) is a striking example of how architecture can blend seamlessly with its natural surroundings while offering a versatile space for cultural and community events. Nestled into the landscape, the bowl-shaped auditorium provides an intimate setting with tiered seating for 200 guests, ensuring unobstructed views of the stage from every angle.

This outdoor amphitheater is designed to be more than just a performance venue; it’s a cultural hub where art, music, and storytelling come to life. Overlooking the historic heart of Nassau and its harbour, the setting is both inspiring and picturesque. Above the amphitheater, a sculpture garden features works by renowned Bahamian artists, complemented by native plants and a community farm, creating a vibrant atmosphere that celebrates the local culture.

The thoughtful design of Fiona’s Theatre makes it a unique destination for a wide range of events, from weddings to meetings, to performances. The inclusion of natural materials, such as the stone seating and grassy tiers, not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also ties the space to its Bahamian roots. Whether attending a cultural event or simply visiting the sculpture garden, guests are invited to immerse themselves in the rich artistic and natural heritage of The Bahamas.
