From the gymnasium a road leads to the stadium and the theatre at its end. A combinatio0n of these two is unique. Building started around 160 and proceeded into the middle of the third century AD. Again M. Apuleius Eurykles seems to have had a hand in some of the building works.

On the picture: Standing outside, in front of the west entrance, and looking north, along the west facade of the stadium. The high section of wall in the back belongs to the theater.
