BATS Theatre

From a gorgeous three level repurposed historic building we nurture creative talent and showcase exciting new NZ performance. Our buzzing year-round programme is an alternative mash-up of theatre, dance, improv, stand-up, and experimental work. We partner in the development of exciting and bold performance. Through the meeting of digital and live art, bolstering BATS as a hub of creativity and showcasing diverse festival activity we support career sustainability and wellbeing for all.We're the place to get up close to Aotearoa's next generation of artists and creatives. With a cosy boutique bar and art gallery on site, a night out at BATS is a unique and immersive Wellington experience. Nau mai, piki mai, haere mai!
