Its basically a performing arts theatre, though which hangs the veil of International Film Festival of Kerala and becomes a Film Theatre.It houses nearly 1000 seats.Pretty good leg space is available in between seats.The seats are comforting.I would choose the lower area rather than choosing the Balcony. I found it more appealing/enjoyable.Just choose a seat which is to the middle part of the theatre and have a great show.Cheerio

Very good ambience for all kinds os programmes
Very nice ambience. Good chairs and air conditioner is very good
One of the unique place in trivandram...Especially every year film festivals (iffk) starts from here.
Tagore Centenary Hall, popularly known as Tagore Theatre, is a quintessential name while you talk about Thiruvananthapuram. As the name depicts, it is named after Great Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore. While India celebrated the 150th birth day of Shri Rabindra Nath Tagore, Govt of India has taken the account of all the installations in the name of Shri rabindra Nath Tagore, and sanctioned fund to renovate all these. But as all know the time delay normally occurs in availing the fund granted by central govt..!! So Govt Kerala has spent almost 23 crore rupees. It is one among the two theatres founded in 1965(one at Trivandrum and one at Calicut) and owned by the State Government, Public Relations Department (now with Directorate of Tourism through District Tourism Promotion Council (DTPC)) hosts many cultural events like plays, film shows, dance and music performances and seminars. The theatre, located in about six acres of highly priced land, can seat about 1200 people.
Tagore theater is best during iffk rather than the technicalities the ambiance is really worthy
Tagore Centenary Hall in Vazhuthacaud Trivandrum is a land mark in the city. The Hall was one of the best auditoriums in the city where many functions like Award Functions, Seminars, Film Festivals, Concerts etc were being regularly held. Situated in a convenient location of the city with sufficient parking facility and seating capacity this used to be a preferred location for all important functions, until a decision to refurbish, renovate and restructure the Building was taken about a couple of years back. Since then, the auditorium is closed to public except for the ground where at times parking is allowed for vehicles coming to the two social clubs nearby. The renovation is still in progress and one is not exactly sure as to when the centre will be reopened. But still this remains a land mark in the city and will regain its glory once it is reopend because of the ambience, excellent acoustics (hope these are maintained after renovation as well) and location.
Fabulous place to go. The seats are good and the capacity is a fabulous number of 850 seats. The air conditioning is great sometimes too cold. the balcony arrangement is however very disappointing. We cant see screen properly and looks as if it is downhill. First class area is far better.
Near to trivandrum club and easily notable from main road and has a very good parking space. The theatre is air conditioned well maintained after its renovation. The prestigious Surya Festival is hosted here .Lots of International events and various state government programs are also hosted here... Very spacious hall and spacious stage...
Nice makeover for the old complex. Fully air conditioned. Support staff (stage, electrical, light, sound) are supportive.The only cons are related to the government procedures.
Excellent theatre movie screenings (This is not a Movie Theatre) and performances. So much space for parking. Beautiful surroundings. Spacious and comfortable seating inside. Kudos to the Kerala I&PR Department for maintaining this place for so neatly. Keep it up.
It was hard to believe that it was not a private theatre. Very neat and clean premises. Decent parking and toilet facilities. Seating and sound system were above average. Overall one of the best places in trivandrum to watch a live theatrical performance.
Nice parking area
Good
A very dull looking theatre which is only apt for dramas.
Not a commercial theatre,mostly plays and festivals I watched movies during Iffk I had a great experience, well maintained theatre and surroundings....loved it 🖤🎬
It is a big auditorium for cultural events
Perfect theater experience. A stage on which plays can be arranged and fuñctions too. Stadium seating and top class sound quality. Top class facility around the theater and parking facility is huge
Easily notable from main road. Very good parking space. Theatre is A/C and well maintained after renovation. Major cultural events of State Government like International film festival, various award functions and the prestigious Soorya festival is hosted here. Very spacious hall and spacious stage.
It is a great place to host stage competition (drama etc) since it has a got a very big stage and enough space in the back stage also. It has also got amble parking space too.It should be properly maintained so as to maintain its charm.
This is one of the awesome arena of trivandrum....!! Lots of creative stuffs , arts, festivals have been performed..!! And will in the future...!! This arena also includes a theater thats why the name TAGORE THEATER...!!The picture attached was taken on a festival conducted there called OLAM
Cultural complex owned by Information Public Relations department, Govt of Kerala, in heart of city, between lush green trees. Nice Ambience, great auditorium, with 1000 seats. Best for stage performances and cinema projection.Dolby Atmos 72 channel sound. Christie 2K projection.Very large parking area.
The renovated air conditioned theatre now provides good looks and the face lifted dias and seating arrangements have improved the ambience also. The Parking space may please be laid with garden bricks so as to avoid dusty atmosphere and surroundings.
Nice place. We conducted our college film festival there and that was done great👍
One of the best in kerala
Best part is that lot of space for car parking , if we talk about inside theatre, seats are comfortable and restrooms were clean..
Balcony must be scrapped. It is useless since sitting in the balcony would mean that u cant see half the screen.Sapcious for parking. Beautiful greenery. City centered.

I visited the theatre for the first time during the International Film Festival of Kerala and was blown away by its sheer size. I understand it was a massive auditorium that was converted into a theatre. It does have some drawbacks, but its central location and and ample car parking space makes it a huge hit for film lovers. I definitely recommend it.
Tagore is a government owned and operated theatre that hosts midst of the festivals in Trivandrum. Designed for over 600+ capacity with a balcony and normal seating area. The theatre was renovated recently to offer plush seating and comfortable space with a large centre stage. Toilet facilities are available indoors. A few bad things about this facility is that ancillary facilities like parking, toilets are not proportional to seating capacity, so any major event could create long queues. Located at the heart of the city, vazhuthacaud, accessibility is very good. Overall I would rate 4, because of the negligence towards making it a international quality arena and leaving it just as a mediocre theatre, if designed and maintained well, it could host top class international level conferences and delegations.
Good ambience
Great community Gathering and Arts and Cultural event Area.Spacious Auditorium occupy 1500+ seats and stadium view balcony seats. Multi purpose stage for performing arts and screening theatre.Newly added surround atmos audio facilities and premium seats.Huge parking spaces all around and in prime location.
I went to Tagore theater premise for Olam 2020. It was a nice atmosphere there. Well done Team olam for that. The space is pretty big for organizing a fest. There were nearly 100+ stalls and other events organised there. The theater itself can accommodate a large group. Good parking facility and well accessible as it is right in the city.
Good place with lots of trees in the compound, therefore does not feel much heat. The theatre is used for screening films as well as hosting other functions. The theater has sufficient seating capacity and is maintained well.
Nice location to host drama performance, movie screening, and conferences. Very good ambiance inside along with great light and sound system inbuilt, reducing the need for external systems. In fact very nice.
Very good auditorium for both movies and events. Hi Fi Dolby Atmos sound and excellent 4k equipped theatre with huge balcony. Very good parking area and can be located easily.
Tagore theatre is the one of the oldest cultural centre for TrivandrumThis is a great theater for concerts or the film festival. Its the most modern, comfortable, clean, and has decent restrooms. Just heard a fabulous free concert there. If you have a chance for a good program, dont miss it.
Joy of performing arts
There is an amazing effort from the government to make such a nice place. This theatre is good for drama performance and movie screenings. This is not a usual theatre for daily movie screening. We went there at the time of IFFK 2018. Nice sound system and projector quality. Ample parking space and located in the heart of the city.
Fabulous experience wonderful parking facility. Its too good to watch movie in there. Sounds system is fabulous
Tagore theater is one of the oldest theaters in Trivandrum City.The Theater is owned by I&PRD GOVERNMENT OF KERALA.Screen is equipped with Christi 2K Projector and Dolby Atmos which gives a wonderful experience. I had visited there during IFFK.
Signature of Thiruvananthapuram. 👏♥️ One of our daily weekend spots in thiruvananthapuram.
Nice place to hangout if there is some program going on. Yearly occurance of Olam, a mixed cultural festival of Trivandrum, with Flea market and fine arts makes it a great place to pick by with families.Parking is a bit tough to find on during festivals.
Visited this place as a part of olam festival which was amazing experience .
