The Auditorio Alfredo Kraus is a concert hall in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain, designed by Óscar Tusquets in the postmodern style and built in concrete between 1993 and 1997. Conceived partly as a lighthouse to protect Las Canteras beach, it opened on 5 December 1997 and is named in homage to the Gran Canarian tenor. Its main hall has a window of around 100 m² behind the orchestra, framing a view of the Atlantic Ocean during concerts.
