More than 100 theatres across the Czech Republic will open their doors to the public on Saturday, March 29, 2025, as part of the annual Theatre Night (Noc divadel) event.

Since its launch in 2013, Theatre Night has been an integral part of the European Theatre Night project, held in connection with World Theatre Day.

Participating Cities and Activities

The event will span several cities, including Prague, Brno, Ostrava, Liberec, Plzeň, Olomouc, and České Budějovice, among others. Visitors can look forward to live performances, backstage tours, and various cultural experiences at an unusual evening hour.

In addition to performances, participating theatres will host lectures, workshops, and creative competitions tailored for audiences of all ages. Each venue will offer its own curated program, promising one-of-a-kind experiences unavailable on regular days.

Highlights in Prague

Prague residents will have the chance to explore over 30 theatres, including the National Theatre, Švandovo divadlo in Smíchov, and the Jára Cimrman Theatre in Žižkov.

Theme for 2025: “Neighbourhood”

The 2025 Theatre Night will revolve around the theme of “Neighbourhood,” encouraging participants to reflect on the concept from various perspectives.

“Are neighbors simply the people who keep us awake at night or the ones we worry about when hearing distressing news from their countries?” the organizers ask. “Through Theatre Night, we aim to explore the funny, serious, intimate, and communal aspects of neighborhood relationships.”

Pre-Registration and Programme Details

Some events will require pre-registration, and the full list of participating theatres and programs will be available soon on the event’s official website.
