The “Sofia” Theater boasts a rich history spanning 45 years, a significant milestone in the theatrical scene of the city. Positioned within the verdant expanse of Zaimov Park, this theater holds a distinct status as one of the few in Sofia, besides the “Ivan Vazov” National Theater, with a purpose-built structure solely dedicated to theatrical performances. The theater’s elegant white edifice became a focal point for both the city’s residents and visitors during the mid-1980s.
Renowned Bulgarian artists have graced the stages of the “Sofia” Theater, delivering stellar performances that have contributed to its legacy. The theater complex features two halls—an expansive main hall and a more intimate chamber hall—providing spaces conducive to both traditional and experimental theatrical endeavors. Supported by financial backing from the Metropolitan Municipality, an adept acting ensemble brings productions to life within these halls.
The theater’s infrastructure meets modern European standards, enabling it to host a diverse array of international events. Its design includes spacious foyers, accommodating large gatherings and fostering an atmosphere conducive to seminars, presentations, and exhibitions. With a main hall seating 319 spectators and a chamber hall accommodating 49, the “Sofia” Theater remains a versatile cultural hub within the city.
