NOVAT – Novosibirsk State Academic Theater of Opera and Ballet in Iskitim

Amazingly beautiful historical place

Great experience fantastic shows

It is alway a pleasure to visit this theater, thank you to all performers for perfect stage.

Wonderful theatre and ballet. Thankful for the Summer season!

The best

my wifes lungs were falling apart, I was irradiated, My father-in-law diedi dont know if i reccomend

I was invited to Giselle by russian. A very nice theatre which transported for me somewhat a gone Russian area with classical architecture. Seats and view to stage was very well and a relaxed audience. Very impressive was the arrangement on the stage in conjunction with a great lighting. Finally I have to stress a wonderful performance of the ballett dancers. Even as a less expirienced visitor you could see high level Ballet.

I was very impressed, thank you!

Great place. Great ballet!

Beautiful places of culture! Amazing ballet! BRAVO!

A must see place to visit!

Since intermissions became half an hour the plays started to end very late. As time goes by more original productions are getting replaced by gaudy and tasteless ones. As it has been done with the interior.

One of the best ballet groups in the world, in my opinion. I also love the buildingall of the staff are very professional and efficient. And the ballet dancers, choreographers, set designers are extremely artistic, talented and obviously in love with their art

Impressive if seemingly grossly oversized for the need for a dedicated opera house in this economically challenged city. Glad of the access to arts, but maybe a more diverse facility would better suit the locals. Who knows? It’s certainly interesting and imposing to look at.

Gorgeous theater. Beautiful Cinderella. And most amazing were decorations. New era of ballet show, 100% fabulous!

Great performance of the ballet team

Beautiful opera and ballet theatre, the surroundings are a pleasure to walk in and many interesting sculpture and art pices to look at Can be very crowded, and traffic is heavy in the area!

Amazing!!

Amazing quality, both opera and ballet.Refurbished recently, great staff, quality time out.

Beautiful place!

So beautiful place with amazing performances <3 my last impression was "Swan lake"

Amazing place. Absolutely awesome and truly entertaining. I regret I had no opportunity to get here earlier, but anyway - its never too late to start something good.

Awesome opera for reasonable money!

This is one of my favourite theaters! Anytime being in Novosibirsk, I try to visit it. Perfect orchestra and ballet dancers, as well as opera singers. I do recommend the theater to everyone.(The tickets are available online).

Beautiful and great place to be

Amazing

Very beautifull performance. Huge building and nice service.

Best theatre in Eastern part of Russia!

Ooh wow, what alovely experience 🤗.Truly enjoyed the show. The theatre itself is so pretty too🤩

Good repertoire. Lifehack: choose balcony seats

Super!

Bigest opera theater on Siberia

love this place! Russian ballet is the best!

Didnt go inside but apparently you can look at some costumesNice square and park next to the theatre.There are benches where people can relax.The square have a lot of bikers doing tricks.Nice Lenin statue with soldiers on one side and a couple on the other side.

Very big opera. It was a carmen opera. Great.

We went to watch "Big Waltz" The music was great indeed! And the theater was georgeous! We purchased the cheapest seats (600rubles per pesonbut it still gave us a really nice and close view of the stage! Plus the staff were fluent in English, and when we asked where our seats were, one male staff memeber walked us to our seats. We felt so much kindness of Russia! Thank you!

If you want to get synopsis for show on English tape in Google - novat, the name of show for example - Spartacus, synopsis.

Worth watching any one show. I watched the ballet "sleeping beauty". You can buy tickets online with seat selection even from your own country before arriving in Russia. I did and I didnt have to stand in queue at the ticket counter. Plus, with advanced booking, I was able to select a decent seat near to the stage (if you buy late, only distant seats or costliest seats may remain for sale - Ballet is all about visuals and seat selection is most important.The opera hall is gorgeous, though not allowed to take photos. Do wear your best dress underneath your warm clothing (if visiting in winter). Nice arrangements for security and cloak room.

My love 💘

Very good!!!

I really like the performances there

Great! But expensive a little bit)

Excellent performance and customer service

Beautiful place with professional performances

The sign of the city and magnificent historical structure with decent cultural, engineering and scientific background

Very good place to visit always.

One of the must to visit places in the city. Dont forget to dress appropriate.

Great atmosphere, but avoid the tartines

Great building with very Soviet statutes towards the front.

After the renovation and rebranding (Novosibirsk state academic Opera and Ballet theatre becomes Novosibirsk academic theatre, or NOVATtheatre straightened as cultural symbol of Novosibirsk, indispensable to visit
