Cultural venues

Strasbourg owes the richness of its cultural offer to the diversity of its artists as well as to its many cultural venues.

Opéra National du Rhin

The Opéra national du Rhin is jointly run by Strasbourg, Mulhouse and Colmar. It stages operas, ballet, recitals concerts and also performances for a younger public.

Théâtre National de Strasbourg (TNS)

The TNS is the only French National Theatre to be found outside Paris. The theatre's programming underlines its originality and emphasises the power and diversity of words and the skills of the actors. The TNS also frequently stages contemporary revivals of classic plays.
