Right in the heart of the city, Ravindra Bharati is almost a landmark. With a well-maintained garden, the auditorium has huge gates and compound walls within which a systematic parking arrangement is done. This AC theater was built in 1964 with a capacity of 1,000 people including the balcony. The entrance of the hall, through the steps and the towering ornamented wooden doors, further lead to a statue of Rabindranath Tagore. The stage and green rooms are again well equipped and systematic. Apart from the main theater, Ravindra Bharati has a gallery and a conference hall on the 1st and the 2nd floors (mini theaters).

A center for all the cultural activities in Twin cities for a long time. Now it is the cultural heritage of twin cities. A place where music, drama, dance of very high level were conducted

Beautiful memories of my son Rohan's performance on the UKG annual day.

I have been going regularly to Ravidrabharathi for the last 25 years . The 2 wheeler and 4 wheeler should be improved. The entire front approach road should be cement layered. I have the concrete hurting the walkers . The toilets should be improved a lot actually they can have best sanitary materials and sensors to drain water automatically in the urine pots . They install exhaust fans to drive away the stinking smell . The place is a prestigious cultural centre visited by foreign visitors as well as VIPs. I heard that they are collecting heavy hiring charges .

It looks good and my son is participating in the quizz today.The auditorium and place looks really nice .They have a very good seating capacity and centralized air condition in the hall and the sound system is also clear.

It is a popular AC Auditorium, but has become old. Interiors badly need renovation. Maintenance to be improved. Parking not much but ok. Good Location in city center and well connected by public transport and Metro rail.

The seats are all broken at the back , no one bothers to get them repaired . The washrooms are on only one side of the hall, elderly people can't even think of going for washroom because they have to walk around so much. There is no much updation ...its same old one. Just the front seats are maintained well

A good place for cultural events. However, the contact numbers given online are not correct. If you are looking to book an auditorium space, walk into the office directly. They are available from 10:30 am to 5:30 pm.
