Det Vestnorske Teateret (formerly Hordaland Teater) is a regional theatre established in 1988. It is located in Logen in the center of Bergen, near the Blue Stone.

Det Vestnorske Teateret uses Nynorsk as its administrative language and performs in Nynorsk and dialect. The theatre has a strong focus on using new dramatic works and an identity rooted in Western Norwegian culture.
