Antiguo Casino de Puerto Rico was built in 1917 as a social and cultural landmark for San Juan’s elite during the early twentieth century. Designed in a grand Beaux-Arts style, the building reflected a time when Puerto Rico was shaping a new identity through architecture, arts, and formal social life. Despite its name, it was never a gambling casino, but rather a private social club where dances, concerts, and important gatherings took place.

Over the decades, the Antiguo Casino became closely tied to the island’s cultural development. It hosted orchestras, theatrical presentations, and civic events that brought together artists, intellectuals, and public figures. As Puerto Rico’s society evolved, the building transitioned from an exclusive club into a public cultural space, preserving its historic character while opening its doors to a wider audience.

Today, Antiguo Casino de Puerto Rico stands as a symbol of elegance, memory, and continuity. Its halls carry the echoes of a bygone era while continuing to serve as a setting for concerts, ceremonies, and artistic events. More than just a historic structure, it represents Puerto Rico’s commitment to preserving its cultural heritage and celebrating creativity within spaces that have witnessed generations of shared history.
