The Durham Performing Arts Center is a performance venue in Durham, North Carolina. It is best known for being the largest performing arts center in the Carolinas and is the main venue in the city for the cost of $48 million.

Opened in 2008, the Durham Performing Arts Center is a very well reviewed site. With its 2712-seater theater, it is a massive venue that has excellent accommodations and overall atmosphere. Everyone who has been there cannot deny that the acoustics are outstanding. This, along with tons of other great points about the venue, makes the center a close competitor against the historic Carolina Theatre and the Progress Energy Center for the Performing Arts in Raleigh.

The Durham Performing Arts Center is home to several live performances and national touring acts.
