The amphitheater is named in honor of Humberto de Nito, a prominent composer and musician born in Rosario who was a key figure in the city's early 20th-century cultural scene.
The venue's architecture utilizes the natural topography of the Rosario riverfront to provide natural sound resonance.
It is situated within Parque Urquiza, a park designed by landscape architect Carlos Thays, which occupies the grounds of a former military fortification.
The site is often utilized for the 'Rosario bajo las Estrellas' (Rosario under the stars) summer cycle, which features diverse musical genres.
The open-air design means events are subject to weather conditions, often necessitating rescheduling during periods of heavy rain.
