National Theatre Award has been held since 2011 by the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Belarus in cooperation with the Belarusian Theatre Workers Union, Belarusian Literary and Art Critic Union, and Belarusian Composers Union.

The contest is carried out in two phases. The first one is creation of a selection committee, which is approved by the Ministry of Culture. Theatres send there an application, containing the information about the performance they want to nominate for the award. The selection committee will select the nominees in one or several nominations for participation in the second phase of the contest. During the second phase the jury will select winners in the following nominations: best production, best direction, best male role, best female role, best scenography, best soundtrack, best modern Belarusian production. The awards are presented during the solemn ceremony with money prizes.
