“Is this a teenage girl’s bedroom or a theater?” That’s what some people ask when they first see the SNH48 Star Dream Theatre. It’s hard to miss the all-pink walls and posters of the smiling performers. The SNH48 Star Dream Theatre is not just a venue. It’s the heart of China’s biggest girl group.

The SNH48 Star Dream Theatre officially opened on August 30 2013. It’s located on Jiaxing Road in Hongkou district. The SNH48 Star Dream Theatre is more than just a performance space. It’s a place where dreams come alive.
Imagine 48 young women aged 15 to 23. They are divided into teams like Team SII and Team NII. They perform nightly from Fridays to Sundays. These performances at the SNH48 Star Dream Theatre offer a unique experience. Unlike typical idol groups SNH48 has a dedicated theater.
Performances usually last about three hours. There are intermissions known as MCs between songs. During these breaks the members play games or discuss topics. Sometimes they even have friendly debates. Fans love the singing dancing and fun MCs.
After the show you can high-five all the members as you leave the SNH48 Star Dream Theatre. It’s an incredible experience. Tickets can be purchased online. Register on the SNH48 website and buy tickets the Tuesday before the concert. Prices start at 118 yuan.
