Sofia Theatre, Municipal theatre in central Sofia, Bulgaria.

Sofia Theatre is a municipal theatre in central Sofia with multiple performance spaces for regular shows. The venue presents classical and contemporary plays throughout the theatrical season.

Founded in 1966 as the Theatre of Poetry and Stage, it was renamed Sofia Theatre at the end of 1969. Its first director was Andrey Chaprazov and its first director of productions Leon Daniel. The building in Zaimov Park, designed by architect Zheko Zhekov after a 1969 competition, was completed in 1977.

The theatre presents Bulgarian plays alongside international productions, creating a space where local artists connect with global theatre. Visitors experience diverse voices and stories that shape the city's cultural life.

Visitors can book tickets online through the theatre's website and access discounts for students, seniors, and group reservations. It's wise to plan ahead since popular shows often sell out quickly.

The building in Zaimov Park was designed by architect Zheko Zhekov, who won the 1969 competition; construction lasted until 1977. Its two halls seat 314 and 60 to 74 spectators, and the foyers also host seminars, presentations and exhibitions.
