About the Venue

Hakata-za is a theater located in Hakata-ku, Fukuoka City, specifically at 2-1 Shimokawabatamachi. It is the largest dedicated theater for stage performances in the Kyushu region. The venue is integrated into the Hakata Riverain commercial complex, occupying floors two through six of the building. The current Hakata-za is the second generation of the theater, with the original having opened in 1910. It has a capacity of approximately 1,500 seats, configured as a proscenium theater with a full seated layout. The design prioritizes clear sightlines and acoustics suitable for traditional and modern stage productions like kabuki, musicals, and plays. While primarily a theater, its stage specifications and facilities can accommodate concerts and other live performances. Its scale and professional focus make it a key cultural venue in western Japan.
