Varna Opera Theatre, Opera house in Varna, Bulgaria
The Varna Opera Theatre building displays Neo Renaissance architectural elements with Neo Baroque details in the center of the coastal city.
The construction of the theater began in 1912 but faced delays due to the Balkan Wars before its official inauguration in 1932.
The venue serves as the home for the Opera and Philharmonic Society of Varna, presenting classical operas, ballet performances, and symphony concerts.
The theater underwent renovations in 2012 with European Union support to modernize its facilities according to current performance venue standards.
The institution established the world's first international ballet competition in 1964, which continues to attract dancers from numerous countries.
