A warmer and safer ride home from the theater!

Exclusive taxi service for NTB spectators
The "I.L. Caragiale" National Theater in Bucharest and Meridian Taxi are delighted to welcome the spectators with an initiative aimed to bring a touch of comfort and safety to winter evenings. From January 22, 2025, right after the end of the performance of "The Hanged Man's Forest" (around 10.40 pm), a specially arranged station in the theater's parking lot will offer culture lovers an easy way to continue their evening in peace, without worrying about the cold or the dark. This partnership is dedicated to all those who believe that the magic of performance should not stop when the curtain comes down.
Therefore, in order to meet the needs of spectators who attend NTB performances and who often face mobility problems due to traffic jams, both at peak hours (coinciding with the starting times of NTB performances) and at late hours when some performances end, the taxi company Meridian TAXI has recently signed a partnership protocol with the NTB under which it offers an exclusive service with premium advantages of access to taxi on-demand services to NTB spectators, both when they leave the NTB and when they arrive for performances or other events at the NTB: fast order pick-up, immediate access to the pick-up location (located within the perimeter of the NTB parking lot), payment of the ride with POS, synchronization of the flow of available cars with the number of spectators, payment by card in the mobile app, ordering via Whatsapp and Instagram, etc.
Thus, based on a QR code displayed in the NTB foyers, spectators will be able to initiate by phone the order of a taxi from the Meridian fleet, immediately receiving the necessary details for the trip, and will be directed to the customer arrival/ pick-up points located visibly in the NTB's outdoor parking lot.
Meridian will automatically take NTB customers' orders, directing taxis with priority to this area specially set up by NTB in its own parking lot, hereinafter referred to as the "customer pick-up/arrival point"
Upon arrival of the taxis, customers will be validated by the drivers on the basis of the messages received by phone and transported to the desired destinations.
Spectators who will use the services of the Meridian taxi fleet to come to the performances and events taking place at the NTB will also benefit from various advantages: payment of the fare by mobile POS, compliance with the mandatory premium equipment conditions of the taxis that will serve this destination. Meridian will offer discounts or bonuses to NTB spectators: for every 4 rides to the National Theater, Meridian will offer a 40 lei voucher (Conditions of use: rides must be ordered from the Meridian application; a user can receive a maximum of 2 vouchers in a calendar month).
Taxi to the theater! - here is a slogan about to become reality...
