Hålogaland Teater

Hålogaland Teater is a theatre company in Tromsø operating from a contemporary building at Teaterplassen. The facility houses two main stages, a smaller cafe stage, and rehearsal spaces designed for diverse productions.

The company was founded in 1971 as Norway's first independent regional theatre ensemble. Its name derives from Hålogaland, the medieval region that once encompassed northern Norway.

The theatre presents works in regional Norwegian dialects, bringing local stories and voices to the stage throughout the season. These performances reflect the cultural identity and traditions of northern Norway.

The theatre operates from its main venue in Tromsø and also tours to nearby communities throughout the region. Booking information and current schedules are available through their official channels.

The building's sound systems are engineered to withstand the extreme temperature shifts that occur at such far northern latitudes. This specialization reflects the practical challenges of operating a theatre in the Arctic.
