About Devlet Tiyatroları Pursaklar Sahnesi

The Pursaklar Sahnesi is a State Theatre stage in Pursaklar, on Ankara's northern edge, and the first theatre stage to open in the district. It was built by Pursaklar Municipality in cooperation with the Ministry of Culture and Tourism and opened on 12 October 2021, with the then Minister of Culture and Tourism, Mehmet Nuri Ersoy, attending. The first production staged here was Bizim Yunus. With 679 seats, both Turkish Wikipedia and the municipality describe it as the largest State Theatre stage in Ankara, and the municipality highlights its modern building and up-to-date stage technology. According to the municipality, the hall welcomed 92,525 visitors across 55 plays, 181 performances and other events and special shows in its first seasons. The stage is used by the Ankara State Theatre (Ankara Devlet Tiyatrosu) for its repertory, so the programme changes from week to week. In November 2026 the official ticketing calendar lists İskender Pala's Nizamülmülk and Ağır Roman here, with evening performances at 20:00 and Saturday matinees at 15:00. Tickets are sold through the State Theatres' online ticketing on Biletinial; check the current programme before making the trip out to Pursaklar.
