Abstract: Focusing on 219 existing ancient opera stages in Hunan Province, this study integrates GIS spatial analysis with the AHP-entropy model to exam-ine their spatial distribution and disaster risk characteristics. The findings reveal a generally discrete distribution pattern (R=1.86), with high-density clusters in southern and western Hunan. Spatial evolution follows a tempo-ral sequence, shifting from a southern concentration during the Ming and Qing dynasties to multi-directional expansion in the late Qing and Republic periods. A total of 72 stages are located in key geologic hazard zones, and 169 are threatened by floods, particularly in mountainous and low-lying ar-eas. Based on disaster risk zoning, a hierarchical protection strategy is pro-posed— emphasizing structural reinforcement and digital monitoring in high-risk areas, and drainage improvements with community participation in sec-ondary zones. The study establishes a “distribution–risk–response” frame-work, providing a scientific basis for the preventive conservation of tradi-tional opera heritage under climate change.
