Uppsala stadsteater

Uppsala City Theatre is a performance venue with four separate stages, including a main auditorium and three smaller spaces designed for different types of productions. These varied rooms allow different scales of shows to be performed under one roof.

The building opened in 1951 following a Neoclassical design by architect Gunnar Leche, marking the start of the venue's long history of performances. Since then it has grown into a major cultural institution for the performing arts in the city.

The theater serves as a gathering place where the city comes together to watch classic dramas, contemporary plays, and musicals performed throughout the year. Visitors experience a range of productions that shape the cultural life of the region.

The venue is accessible for wheelchair users throughout all of its spaces and offers guided tours of the foyer before certain performances. Visitors should check ahead about tour availability for their chosen date.

The foyer displays a protected stucco lustre artwork by artist Sven X-et Erixson featuring his stage designs and costumes from notable productions. This work is a rare example of artistic decoration found in theater spaces.
