Théâtre Dijon-Bourgogne

The Théâtre Dijon-Bourgogne is a theater and bar located in a converted church building in central Dijon. The main performance hall holds approximately 290 seats and hosts theatrical productions and cultural events.

Founded in 1955 and originally based in Pernand-Vergelesses, the theater relocated to Dijon and became a National Dramatic Center in 1972. The conversion of the church building allowed the company to create a dedicated performance space while preserving the structure's character.

The venue functions as both a performance space and social gathering place, with a bar where audiences mingle before and after shows. This combination reflects how theater here serves as a living part of the community rather than a separate cultural institution.

The venue is open Tuesday through Friday with extended hours on Saturday in two separate time blocks. Plan ahead by checking specific event times, as the central location in Dijon is easy to reach on foot or by local transport.

The building was originally a church that was adapted into a modern cultural venue while retaining its architectural heritage. This transformation demonstrates how historic structures can serve new purposes without losing their distinctive character.
