We came for an outdoor concert in the evening. The Sun was shining in our faces, but that did not last long as it was soon behind the buildings on the other side of the Reedy River. We enjoyed a nice open area with bathroom facilities nearby as well as a clean place and open for the children to run and play. Overall, I hope that more concerts and entertaining events will occur in this place.

So...this is how the peace center is deciding to treat costumers that have had season tickets for over 13 years! Force a donation out of you to keep your seats for next season! Nice timing with Hamilton coming! Money hungry!! Don t make the donation we will be happy to find you a seat in the back or nose bleed seats.

I love the Peace Center! Sometimes the words of the music are a little hard to understand, even from good orchestra seats, but it's a great venue, and is situated in such a lovely area of downtown Greenville!

Lovely place for a show! My boyfriend and I are quite tall and found our balcony seats to supply plenty of room to comfortably watch The Book Of Mormon. Drink prices are definitely high, but that's expected at a theater.

Saw "Beautiful" and loved both the show and the venue. Seating is comfy with plenty of legroom. (Evidently they need more women's bathrooms, though.) Drinks are served before, during and after performances and there are plenty of restaurants and drinking establishments nearby for after the shows. Beware that parking costs are higher when there's a show!

I'll try to keep comments to the facility itself and not the performance. Wonderful theatre (Lion King), but awkward pinch points at the doors into the theatre and bathrooms. I don't recommend sitting in the last orchestra row as the floor slope flattens out so you're stuck with the back of someone's head in your view. If the sound board is on your row you also have a one way in/out to your seat.

Amazing venue. Better symphony than our small town deserves as well. I haven't identified a bad seat in the house, customer service is incredible, location is perfect... Just a pleasure. My wife and I purchased a season pass for the Broadway series this year and are excited!

This smaller stage at the Peace Center has a large performing stage and a few seats which gives the space a cozy feel. There is not a bad seat in the house. The quality of performance is very good. I saw a Greenville Children's Theatre performance here and thought that the quality of the set, costumes, and puppets were very good.

Wonderful theatre, all seats can see stage well. Clean and comfortable seats and rest rooms. My only suggestion would be to add more restrooms. At intermission the ladies room was ridiculously crowded with the line extending way down the lobby.

Orderly, well decorated and convenient to get to as it's off the Main Street. My only complaint, if you have nosebleed seats and have a breathing or cardiac issue, getting up to the rafters is quite stressful. The acoustics were excellent and seats were of average comfort. I couldn't enjoy the show as I would have liked had I been seated somewhere without the climb....

Saw COME FROM AWAY, the Gander side of 9/11. Just an outstanding story brought to life. Visceral
A lunch dash at Genevieve's in the complex was delightful. Our waiter was Choiki and he was quick and efficient and joyful!

An American in Paris.. It's best feature: the interesting sets. An immense amount of ballet, very similar choreography in all numbers. Not a whole lot of Gershwin songs. The book....the story line.....is pretty thin. We thought the whole thing was a bit on the boring side.

Saw Jackie Evancho in concert last night. She has a lovely voice; unfortunately, the sound system was not up to professional standards. That really took the enjoyment out of the performance. Not sure I'll attend another musical there unless they address the sound.

The acoustics make every concert or talk easy to hear. This is great. The seats are comfortable and there is not a bad view from any of them. I have been here many times. Everyone should go to at least 1 event here. Then they will be hooked.

Attended the Holiday at Peace for the Saturday evening performance. Streets were closed due to the parade which should have been canceled due to non- stop rain. The guest singer James Torme's voice was washed out from the GSO. Sat in the balcony front row and had to strain to hear him through his mic. GSO played wonderfully with holiday tunes and the ballet snippets of the upcoming Nutcracker were well done. Next time will get seats in the lower levels

We drove from Alabama to Greenville, SC to see an A Capella group. It was worth the drive. The arena was very attractive and the seats were very comfortable. I recommend it highly. The Peace Center is close to downtown where there are shops, cafe's, restaurants, and a CVS. Very nice to stroll down.

The peace center is great to visit and enjoy a show. We love the Broadway series they put together every year and they always have some great options around the holidays. I sat in about every section and haven't ever had issues seeing and enjoying the shows. Do yourself a favor and grab some tickets to enjoy a great night out.

Been coming here for years with my family and love it every time. It's always clean inside and out. When you walk into the building your always blown away with the beauty and class of the building. The staff is always so friendly and helps you with anything you need.
