Rome's Colosseum, for example (5)

I believe the answer is:

arena

(Other definitions for arena that I've seen before include "Auditorium" , "Performance space" , "Sit around here being entertained" , "Amphitheatre's central space" , "Performance venue" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
