3 Best Performing Arts Venues in West Palm Beach, Palm Beach and the Treasure Coast

This is the crown jewel amid a treasury of local arts attractions, and its marquee star is the 2,195-seat Dreyfoos Hall, a glass, copper, and marble showcase just steps from the restaurants and shops of The Square. The center also boasts the 289-seat Rinker Playhouse, 170-seat Persson Hall, and the Gosman Amphitheatre, which holds 1,400 total in seats and on the lawn. A packed year-round schedule features a blockbuster lineup of Broadway's biggest touring productions, concerts, dance shows, dramas, and musicals; the Miami City Ballet, Palm Beach Opera, and the Palm Beach Pops perform here.

Housed in an intimate venue with only 218 seats in downtown West Palm Beach, the modus operandi is "theater to think about," with plays by Pulitzer Prize winners on rotation.

Still going strong after more than 60 years, three main-stage productions are offered during the season from January through April at the Kravis Center, with English-language supertitles. There's an annual Children's Performance when all tickets are $5, plus a free outdoor concert at the Meyer Amphitheatre in downtown West Palm Beach. Tickets start at $25.
