Shop at Quatre Rêves for souvenirs and enjoy lunch at the in-house restaurant

About this spot

Opened in 1924, this is the home base of the Takarazuka Revue Company, which performs the motto 'pure, correct, and beautiful' year-round. Its brick palace-like exterior is the symbol of Takarazuka, the revue town. Even without performance tickets, you can fully savor the glamorous Takarazuka atmosphere by browsing stage photos and merchandise at the official shop 'Quatre Rêves,' or enjoying lunch at the in-house restaurants and cafes. The 'Hall of Takarazuka Revue,' which traces the footsteps of past stars (admission fee required), is also well worth seeing. With about 2,500 seats, if you wish to attend a performance at the grand theater, advance ticket reservations are essential. The lobby with its red carpet and sparkling chandeliers is filled with otherworldly elegance; if you both enjoy performances and art, simply walking through the halls will make your hearts race.

Tips

Right at the end of Hana-no-Michi. If you wish to attend a performance, advance reservation through the official website is essential—popular shows sell out quickly. Note that the theater is closed on non-performance days, when the shop and restaurants are also typically closed; check the performance schedule beforehand. Lunch service gets crowded before performances, so timing it differently ensures a smoother experience.
