Denver Performing Arts Center

A Day & Night at the Theatre

Looking to add an enjoyable evening indoors to your vacation itinerary? Grab dinner then a show at the Denver Performing Arts Center.



The Performing Arts Center is a multi-venue 12 acre complex covering 4 city blocks in downtown Denver. The DPAC houses 10 venues, a 10,000sf ballroom and 5 on-site dining options.

Insider Recommendation:
Parking is limited so we highly recommend taking the RTD Denver Light Rail. Should you choose to drive, covered parking runs about $12. If you are having dinner at the Performing Arts Center or at nearby restaurants be sure to ask about ticket validation.
