The amphitheatre provides a good ambience for people to relax and enjoy a variety of cultural programmes like classical music, dance & folk art performances every weekend. The amphitheatre has a capacity of 1,500 people. Theatre plays and dance performances are held here regularly. Performances by popular classical dancers, music maestros and other upcoming young artistes are a regular feature here.

The performances at the amphitheatre are dominated by the folk and tribal art. This provides unique opportunity to the less privileged rural folks who can come here, participate and meet the popular artists. The Folk art is given more priority at Shilparamam which remains unseen and unheard by the large chunk of masses, especially in India.
