Durham is home to a wide variety of rich and diverse cultural attractions.
Durham Convention Center is located steps away from the Carolina Theatre, a historic landmark that remains a thriving spot for entertainment, and near the Durham Performing Arts Center, a nationally respected arts center.
Enjoy unique restaurants, shopping, art galleries, breweries, and museums. Spend the afternoon enjoying our rich architecture, or catch a baseball game at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park.
We are located two miles away from both Duke University and North Carolina Central University. Situated just four miles from the world-renowned Research Triangle Park, and convenient to Raleigh-Durham International Airport.
