Durham, NC Events: Theatre & Concerts
Live events, concerts, sports, theatre and unforgettable tours — handpicked, city by city.
Durham's calendar is led by theatre, with our listings tracking 140 touring productions against 109 concerts — 312 events in total.
Durham Performing Arts Center is the busiest venue in our data by a wide margin, one of the highest-grossing theatres in the country for a city its size. Carolina Theatre, a restored 1926 venue, and The Pinhook cover the indie and repertory scene, while Durham Bulls Athletic Park hosts Minor League Baseball alongside occasional stadium concerts.
A single Broadway-caliber touring house driving nearly half the calendar, backed by a genuinely active indie club scene, gives Durham an outsized entertainment footprint for the Triangle.
Every listing links directly to a trusted ticketing partner for live pricing and availability. Browse the calendar below and filter by category or date to plan your visit.
