This is a specialized facility for classical performing arts, focusing on Noh and Kyogen. The Noh stage was built in 1875 at the residence of the former lord of Kaga, Maeda, and has been restored and is currently in use (designated as a tangible cultural property by Yokohama City).
Since its opening in June 1996, the center has hosted highly planned performances, outreach programs, and barrier-free Noh performances.
The theater is currently closed until June 2026 for major renovations. During this time, it will operate the OTABISHO Yokohama Noh Theater, a gallery and shop for Noh and Kyogen, on the 5th floor of Landmark Plaza in the Minato Mirai district, as its base of operations. It will also host performances, workshops, and other events in various locations around the city.
