One of the most impressive venues in Plovdiv is undoubtedly the Ancient Theatre. Once you've experienced its magic, you’ll surely want to return and feel its captivating atmosphere again. With its 28 concentric rows of seating, intriguing inscriptions, and beautiful statues, it catches every eye and carries the spirit of Ancient Rome. Thanks to the unique architecture of the theatre, the acoustics are unmatched, ensuring an unforgettable experience.
If you’re in Plovdiv between May and October and can spare an evening, be sure to pick something from the 2025 season lineup — some events even have free admission and are absolutely worth attending!
There are three ticket offices available in Plovdiv: the Ticket Center in front of Plovdiv Municipality on “Stefan Stambolov” Square, a ticket desk at the Tourist Information Center at “Rayko Daskalov” Street 1 (next to the Roman Stadium), and a ticket office at the Ancient Theatre on “Tsar Ivaylo” Street 2-A. At these locations, you can find detailed information about all the events in the city’s cultural calendar, promotional flyers and brochures, and purchase tickets for everything coming up in Plovdiv.
Of course, tickets are also available online through the Eventim network, where you can choose your seats and access different price categories.
