The "Neue Flora" theatre built in the style of the 1920s is located in the direct vicinity of the Holstenbrauerei and is now an important landmark in Hamburg.
With just under 2,000 seats, the Neue Flora in Hamburg is one of the largest theaters in Germany and was built in 1989/90. The seats are arranged as in a classic amphitheater and offer an unrestricted view of the stage from all seats. This covers an area of 815 m², divided into the side stage, back stage and main stage.
Former musicals at Stage Theatre Neue Flora
The Phantom of the Opera", one of Germany's most popular musicals, found its first home here from 1990 to 2001 and delighted more than seven million spectators. Further successful musical productions such as "Tanz der Vampire", "Dirty Dancing" and "Tarzan" followed before the Phantom returned to the stage again in 2013. Until recently, the magical magic of Arabian nights blew through the picturesque theatre hall with the award-winning Disney production ALADDIN, wich was replaced by Cirque du Soleil PARAMOUR. Subsequently, the new production of WICKED - Das Musical was staged at the Stage Theater Neue Flora. In 2022, the feel-good classic MAMMA MIA! returned back again to Hamburg and this special theatre.
