The Salzburg State Theater
Acting in the City of Mozart
Choose between venues with a world reputation, such as the Großes Festspielhaus, or small theaters that give a stage to experimental art and cabaret artists.
From the Altstadthotel Kasererbräu you can reach Salzburg’s largest and most famous venues on foot. The Großes Festspielhaus, for example, is only about a five-minute walk from the 4-star hotel. With its 100-meter-wide stage, it ranks among the largest theaters in the world. High society gathers here for the summer festival, drawing media representatives from all over the world to the gates of the Großes Festspielhaus.
Salzburg's unique theater
Theater has been performed here at the southern exit of the Mirabell Gardens since the 18th century
On the other side of the banks of the Salzach River is the Salzburg Landestheater. Theater has been performed here at the southern exit of the Mirabell Gardens since the 18th century. The four-venue theater promises excellent performances in the areas of musical theater, drama, dance theater, and children’s and youth theater.
The theater with the smallest actors in Salzburg
Right next to the Landestheater is a theater that enjoys a worldwide reputation despite its very small cast and impresses with mature productions: the Marionettentheater Salzburg. For about a hundred years, the little puppets have been enchanting children and adults alike with pieces by Mozart, Tchaikovsky or Shakespeare.
