The station was originally known as Gldani (Georgian: გლდანი). It was renamed in 1992.

During the USSR, works began on a second exit, but was abandoned after the collapse of the USSR[2] but plans to finish the second exit were introduced in 2022. [3] As of 2022, EBRD and the Tbilisi Mayors Office announced that Akhmeteli Theatre would have its second exit completed, and the infrastructure of the station would be adapted for people with disabilities.[4]
