Teatro Jorge Eliécer Gaitán, Municipal theatre in central Bogotá, Colombia.

The Teatro Jorge Eliécer Gaitán is a theatre building in central Bogotá equipped with modern lighting, sound systems, and a stage built for different types of performances. The main hall seats approximately 1,745 people, while additional spaces include a rehearsal room and a smaller performance venue.

The building opened in 1940 as Teatro Colombia and initially served the city as a performance venue. In the 1970s the city acquired the building and renamed it in 1973 to honour a key political figure.

The theatre carries the name of liberal leader Jorge Eliécer Gaitán, who often promoted gaitanismo in the earlier municipal theatre on this site; it was renamed in his honour in 1973. On the stone facade, five allegorical bas-reliefs by sculptor Bernardo Vieco depict tragedy, music, film, dance and comedy.

The theatre occupies the central stretch of the block between Carrera Séptima and Carrera Octava, Calle 22 and Calle 23, in the Santa Fe locality. Entry is through a wide lobby whose curved wooden doors face Carrera Séptima; two staircases lead from the lobby to the upper floors. The auditorium is divided into three sections reached by four aisles, two lateral and two central.

The stone facade carries five allegorical bas-reliefs by sculptor Bernardo Vieco representing tragedy, music, film, dance and comedy, plus fifteen plant-motif reliefs set in three bands on the upper half. The building stands on the site of the old Teatro Municipal, inaugurated on 15 February 1890 with the opera El trovador, demolished in 1952.
