Peace Center For Performing Arts

The Greenville Peace Center is an absolute gem nestled in the heart of downtown, surrounded by a plethora of dining options, hotels, and entertainment venues. Its central location makes it a convenient choice for any outing, with ample parking available nearby at the Marriott for around $16 overnight, where we happened to be staying.Our visit to the Peace Center was particularly memorable as we had purchased tickets to see Hasan Minhaj as a birthday treat for my wife in December. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by tight security measures--our tickets were swiftly scanned, and we were kindly reminded to lock our phones away in provided cases for the duration of the show, ensuring an undistracted experience.While the lobby may not be the largest, the bar offered a surprisingly affordable selection of beverages, although only bottled water was permitted inside the theater.Hasan's performance was nothing short of extraordinary! The seating was comfortable, and the interior of the theater exuded elegance and charm. Every moment of the show was thoroughly enjoyed, culminating in a well-deserved standing ovation that perfectly capped off an unforgettable evening.

The Greenville Peace Center is an amazing location, right in the heart of downtown and close to everything--food, hotels, and entertainment. The location was convenient, with parking at the Marriott costing around $16 overnight, where we were staying.We attended to watch Hasan Minhaj. Security was tight--we scanned our tickets and were informed that all phones needed to be locked in cases until after the show. So no pictures.The lobby isn't the largest, but the bar is very affordable. No beverages are allowed inside except bottled water.Hasan's show was incredible! The seat was great and the interior was so beautiful. We loved every moment and the night ended with a standing ovation.

Visited this venue to see Wicked. It is a very nice theatre, and one of the bigger ones I've been to. The seats are quite comfortable. My main take away is how absolutely rude and unhelpful the staff were. Would still see a show here again, but just know if you aren't in your seat 20 minutes before curtain you will be treated like an uncultured swine.

Great location, security was thorough and friendly. Beverage station readily available, with self order & pay tablets. We were watching a musical on tour and at least this group had two merchandise areas set up, QR codes to look at the availability to keep lines moving.center staff directed flow of traffic well. The stairs to the balcony are something to remember!Acoustic and view was very good!

The venue was nice. The seating and audio were great. Parking in Garages nearby was free. Seating was comfortable. The Peace Center has great acoustics. The staff was ver helpful. Looking forward to seeing the performance. The wiz was great.Waiting for TINA.

Was amazing great service. Very friendly and helpful people. Venue for the movie and accounting orchestra. We will definitely be back.

The Peace Center for Performing Arts puts on great performances but I noticed some issues during my three shows in January.The ticketing staff is friendly and very helpful. The lobby is large and the windows make it seem even bigger. Then there is window seating around the building. Food and drinks need to be consumed in the lobby as well.There is just one restroom on the ground level for men and another for women. Thankfully my show did not have an intermission as that line would be very long. If it was a large women's restroom that would be one thing but it was a small restroom. Exiting the Center after the performance was very slow. I'm not sure why they were directing everyone to the bottom two exits doors rather than using all six of them. The balcony and mezzanine both were empty when the orchestra was still pretty full. If there had been an emergency this would be a safety issue.

Greenville is one of my favorite cities to visit for the weekend, green spaces, lots to do, and of course the food scene of amazing! Ive been here a few times thru out the years for various shows. Beautiful space to see some wonderful entertainment, very clean and well take care of. Drinks and snacks are expensive as per any venue space. If you get a chance go see "The Temptations", goodness it was absolutely amazing!!! They are traveling thru out the USA.A few tips arrive early for free street parking after 6pm or ride around for paid parking garages. Some of the parking garages are $5- $20, choose wisely, Lol! They are very organized once your arrive inside, your check in will move smoothly. If you are in the balcony be prepared to walk up two sets very steep steps. Not good for the knees at all. im sure they have a elevator for the disabled patrons, ask if you need it. Enjoy!

Unable to travel to NC due to the hurricane devastation. Was shocked to learn Peace Center is sticking to their no-refund policy despite the situation. I was told I can resell the tickets for face value and to ignore the threatening wording originally issued advising not to do so. Also absolutely no direction given as to how the tickets would even be transferred if we did find a buyer.What a frustrating experience. We travel to the area often, but this place will certainly not be visited in the future. I hope they use our "donation" for hurricane victims.

Not a real theater! My high school theater was better! My friends and I walked out after first act!! Drive to the fox in Atlanta if you want a real theater experience! This place is a rip off.
