The St. James Theatre in Wellington is a historic venue located on Courtenay Place, renowned for its classical architecture and significant cultural contributions. Opened in 1912, it has been a central hub for performing arts in the city. After falling into decline in the 1970s and almost being demolished, it was saved through a community campaign and restored in the late 1990s. The theatre reopened in 1997 and has since hosted a variety of performances, including ballet, opera, drama, and musical events
The St. James Theatre is known for its stunning proscenium arch, ornate interior, and flexible event spaces, making it a popular venue for both performances and private functions. It regularly hosts events by the Royal New Zealand Ballet, which has several performances scheduled throughout 2024
