Vojtina Puppet Theatre is a magical place where puppetry, story, and community come alive together. Founded from humble beginnings in 1963, the theatre has grown from a children’s puppet group into the city’s own professional puppet theatre, with a mission that deeply values tradition, learning, and heartfelt artistry.

Under its current leadership, Vojtina engages audiences of all ages—not just with its stage performances but also through interactive programmes, thematic playhouses, workshops, and exhibitions. Whether it’s family evenings, Sunday puppet shows, or immersive “play‑theatre” experiences, its offerings are designed to delight, educate, and inspire.

Vojtina’s repertoire draws richly from Hungarian folk tales, legends, and classic literature, as well as from a selection of international children’s tales. The performances are crafted not just for entertainment, but to nurture moral values, strengthen languages skills, and support imaginative development. Importantly, young audiences are welcomed into hands‑on settings where they can explore storytelling, puppetry creation, and dramatic play.

Accessibility and welcoming atmosphere are key to Vojtina’s charm. Its ticket prices are kept family‑friendly, with discounts for large households. Online booking is available, and its two performance venues in the city centre make it easy for audiences to attend.

In every puppet, song, and story, Vojtina Bábszínház fosters a space where children feel seen, families connect, and imagination flourishes. It’s a theatre where the ordinary becomes enchanted—and where everyone, young or old, is invited to travel beyond the stage.
