Ibiza’s historical Teatro Pereyra set to reopen as a music venue

Following a 16-year restoration process, Ibiza’s 125-year-old Teatro Pereyra will finally reopen in the form of a music venue.

Ibiza’s iconic Teatro Pereyra, which was built back in 1899, will reopen its doors to people as a brand-new theatre and live music venue. Inspired by French architecture, the historic building will host both international and local artists. It will also comprise a cocktail bar and a lounge. The upper area of the theatre will now feature a Meyer Sound surround system. Alongside the new system, the original theatre design remains the same, with hydraulic platforms and 256 movable seats present in the orchestra area. Composer and musician Nacho Cano will steer the new “state-of-the-art visual technology”, according to State TV.

Teatro Pereyra’s owner Pedro Matutes Barceló shared his excitement and intentions with the theatre:

“We intend to revive the traditional spirit of the theatre, serving as a communal space for both locals and visitors to mingle, allowing people from all walks of life to connect and indulge in a rich array of cultural and leisure pursuits. Teatro Pereyra will meet the demand for an authentic and original venue befitting an establishment with 125 years of heritage. Furthermore, our prime location in the historic district, nestled at the foot of Ibiza’s ancient walls, adds to the charm.”

Teatro Pereyra is set to open its gates again on the 3rd of May this year. For more information on this cultural landmark, including the theatre’s schedule, its vast history, or information for their upcoming Ibiza Hippy Heaven event, check out their official website.
