In early July 2026 the National Theatre in Brno announced the launch of major renovation works while also unveiling its summer ballet programme. Later that month, the historic Zlín Municipal Theatre, a protected cultural monument, commenced a comprehensive overhaul that includes replacing its façade, windows and doors. The Zlín project, budgeted at nearly 80 million Czech crowns, has required temporary entrances, a provisional stage and the relocation of rehearsal spaces to mitigate noise and safety disruptions. Both initiatives illustrate Czech cities’ efforts to modernise key cultural venues while striving to maintain ongoing performances during extensive construction.

The renovations are funded jointly by municipal and regional authorities, reflecting a coordinated commitment to preserving and upgrading important theatrical infrastructure across the country.
