Theatre De Regentes

Weimarstraat, 2562 GR The Hague
Favourites

De Regentes is an entrepreneurial theatre with several characterful rooms and halls that can be used for plays, concerts, business events and parties. It is a place to inspire and be inspired, to meet people, to relax and to work. Either on a commercial or a cultural basis. Visitors and artists describe the atmosphere as “Off Broadway”. The building has five different halls, two foyers and a tearoom, which can all be fitted out for a wide range of purposes and occasions. No plush seating and carpeting, but rather an original monumental environment, leaving an unforgettable impression.

Former swimming pool
The building that houses De Regentes dates from 1920. It once contained the largest indoor swimming pool and baths in Europe. Since 1996 several subsidized foundations exploited the old swimming pool as a theatre. As from May 2013 the beautiful building is being managed by the Foundation De Nieuwe Regentes, which exploits it as a cultural and social enterprise.
