Updates Summer 2023

Teatro ZinZanni San Francisco was thrilled to announce in February 2020 that Mayor London Breed had signed the final approval of the Board of Supervisors, the Port of San Francisco and the Planning and Historical Commissions to allow a new project to return our antique Belgian spiegeltent to the Embarcadero. TZK, LLC, a partnership of TZZ San Francisco and Kenwood Investments, LLC will develop the new home, including our 280-seat jewelbox spiegeltent “Palais Nostalgique”, a new boutique hotel, and a 14,000-square-foot park, all at the corner of Broadway and Embarcadero.

We are very grateful for years of hard work by our partners, the staff of the Port and City, and the unending enthusiasm of Teatro ZinZanni’s amazing fans and supporters throughout the area. Despite the challenges of the pandemic, we are excited to move ahead and see the new plans take shape, and we are working hard towards reopening in 2024 or 2025.

  • The design for Teatro ZinZanni’s future home reveals that the century old Belgian spiegeltent will be showcased at the heart of a LEED-certified four story, 192 room hotel with a ground floor restaurant on the site and a privately owned park.

 

  • Architect Mark Hornberger of Hornberger + Worstell designed the site plan utilizing feedback from community meetings and extensive research on the historic architecture of the neighborhood.

 

  • The heart of the design for Teatro Zinzanni is a 40-foot glass-walled gazebo with the historic antique mirror tent “Palais Nostalgique” enclosed within. The glass pavilion will reveal the backstage activity to all who pass by along the Embarcadero, and the structure will be built to absorb sound and is “fritted” to ensure it can be seen by birds to avoid collisions by those species that populate the area.
