Rønne Theater

Rønne Theater is a historic theater building with yellow and brown half-timbered walls and a red-tiled roof located at the corner of Teaterstræde and Østergade. The renovated interior provides seating for roughly 300 people and includes two performance spaces suited to different types of shows.

The theater was founded in 1823 after local people converted their informal carnival performances into formal theatrical events. The first production was a stage version of a popular play from that era.

The building sits where everyday life meets artistic expression in the local community. Visitors experience both local and touring productions that shape the cultural rhythm of the island.

The theater is centrally located in town and easily walkable from other downtown areas. The event schedule varies with the seasons, so checking ahead helps you see what shows are running during your visit.

The original stage machinery from the 1800s still works and is used during performances. This rare preservation of a complete historical stage system sets it apart from other European provincial theaters.
