Mestské divadlo Žilina, Municipal theater in Žilina, Slovakia.
Mestské divadlo Žilina is a theater in the city center that combines Italian Renaissance design with 1930s modernist features throughout its structure. The venue contains multiple performance spaces suited for different types of shows.
The theater was founded in 1992 as the first independent repertory theater in Slovakia with direct city funding. Between 1999 and 2003, the building underwent major renovation while continuing its role as a key cultural venue.
The theater focuses on contemporary texts and new interpretations of classical works, presenting performances in multiple spaces including Veľká sála and Štúdio.
Tickets can be purchased at the box office on weekdays in the afternoon or online through the Ticketportal platform. Student and senior discounts are available.
It was the first non-state-run repertory theater in Slovakia, marking a turning point for independent cultural institutions in the country. This history remains central to its identity.
