Welcome

The Wake Forest Renaissance Centre opened in November 2013 by encouraging visitors to “Imagine the Possibilities.” Now, 10 years later, we’re “Realizing the Possibilities” as the premier cultural and performing arts venue in northern Wake County.

We’re excited to commemorate our 10-year anniversary and show our appreciation for our community’s incredible support by hosting 10 sensational events over 10 consecutive months. Our 2023–24 schedule of Main Stage Performances are our way of saying “Thank You” for helping make the Renaissance Centre “the” place our community gathers to celebrate and enjoy the arts.

If you’re familiar with the Renaissance Centre, then you know that most of our Main Stage Performances sell out – many within a few hours of tickets going on sale. This year, in response to such incredible demand, we’re adding performances to several of your favorite shows.

For the first time ever, we will offer two Murder Mystery Dinners, along with two performances of Vital’s Wizard of Oz, Jackie Robinson: A Game Apart, and The Drifters.

You’ll also have four chances to enjoy the wildly popular Celtic Angels Christmas with incredible views of the stage because we’re bringing back the risers to offer stadium seating for all four performances.

But first, get your Malpass Brothers tickets because they always sell out and make plans to enjoy a little comedy mixed with a dose of magic during Jason

Hudy’s Mesmerizing Magic. In addition, our Celebration of the Arts will offer a wonderful variety of free arts experiences, while our 5th Annual Wake Forest Film Festival is sure to enlighten and entertain.

Tickets to our Main Stage Performances go on sale to the public on Wednesday, June 28, at 10 a.m., but our Friends of the Centre can purchase their tickets a full two weeks earlier beginning Tuesday, June 13, at 10 a.m.

The last 10 years have been beyond wonderful, so we can hardly wait to see what the next 10 years have in store. Thank you for your continued support of the Renaissance Centre! We look forward to seeing you soon.
