Teatro Degollado in Guadalajara: the night where the OFJ plays Beethoven's Ninth and the Jalisco Governor steps out of the box with the musician's recognition under his arm, while curated artisan merch is delivered in the Hospicio Cabañas esplanade

Teatro Degollado is the neoclassical theater of Guadalajara with 995 horseshoe-shaped seats, boxes with red velvet curtain, lobby with Italian marble floor, rehearsal hall with two grand pianos and independent access from Plaza de la Liberación. Jalisco Philharmonic Orchestra performances run here, along with Jalisco State Government galas for the city's anniversary, Presea Jalisco awards, Guadalajara International Book Fair concerts, National Dance Company premieres and Jalisco Culture Ministry events. What defines Teatro Degollado is institutional solemnity with republican tradition: state protocol and curated merchandising coexist in the same foyer.
