This internationally renowned theater is an architectural masterpiece and includes two well-known ballet and opera groups.
Somewhat unusual choice. 'Coppelia' isn't a very populated ballet, at home they had moved it to the New Stage with less than 900 seats. Here in Novosibirsk the theatre is the biggest in the country – that is, the building, the seating capacity of the main hall after the renovation is about 1400, as far as I remember. And they are always full-booked! Like all theatres designed in 1930-s it is planned as circles going around the stage; no boxes, just one 'open space'. The good thing is that the view is fairly good thanks to very steep steps. That is unless you have a seat somewhere in the corner. But you really don't need to do that, as the tickets are not so awfully expensive, compared with what we are used to in Moscow. The ballet was really charming! It's sort of a fairy-tale, based on Hoffmann's works, but much more cheerful. To enhance the magic they used modern visual graphics; I am generally not a huge fan, but to my surprise it merged well with the traditional ballet skills. I've heard sometimes they offer backstage tours, or maybe, guided tours around the building - very much worth a visit; a splendidly furbished foyer, and the newly-renovated audience-hall. Highly recommend!

Viktor Bronshteyn’s Gallery is the largest gallery in Siberia. You can see the fine art paintings, graphic and sculptural works of not only Siberian artists, but also authors from different regions of Russia and other countries. Permanent exhibition of the well-known artist Dashi Namdakov is the pride of the collection. You can see the unique sculpture “Bird and Tiger” presented in the hall, which is made from lapis lazuli and bronze.
This gallery is an absolute must for any traveler to Irkutsk. Here you can find the best contemporary art in Irkutsk and probably all of Siberia, with a strong focus on the indigenous Buryat and Evenk artists who explore their own roots with exceptional creativity and up-to-the-minute techniques. The gallery is quite large, offering the opportunity to see several exhibits at once. The staff is very welcoming, and there are opportunities on the premises to relax with refreshments and to buy creative gifts you can't find anywhere else. But the art is the real standout here. If you are curious about the direction of contemporary art in Siberia -- and want to enjoy the outstanding skill of some of its best practitioners -- then you've found the right spot!

Established in 1878, this museum safeguarded valuable collections during World War II and, after the war, expanded its holdings to reflect the region's rapid social development, economic achievements, agricultural and industrial growth and local art.
