National Theatre was built during the Second World War in the early 1960s. Until now, town theatre has undoubtedly confirmed its function with many performances. Through this cultural temple, large number of local and foreign theatre groups were promoted with their own plays and after a short stagnation due to a fire in early 1990s, it was rebuilt to serve the society. Series of theatrical and other cultural events took place here during the last few years, especially in 2011, when Gevgelija was nominated by Ministry of Culture for town of culture in Republic of Macedonia. The theatre is located in town center.
