Open Air Theatre
Great Forest: where the past meets the futureHuge forest pines, giant common oaks… The proximity of nature makes Nagyerdei Open Air Theatre even more special, which has been attracting its visitors for more than 70 years with theatre performances, concerts, and open air cinema programmes.
The open air theatre, built in 1950, has become an integral part of the cultural life of Debrecen in recent decades: high-quality entertainment may take place in the lives of any generation. We welcome all those interested to the events of Nagyerdei Open Air Theatre!

With the history of nearly 70 years
