Some of the finest performances in the region happen at the Orange County Performing Arts Center, which offers a wonderful mix of entertainment from symphony and ballet to Broadway shows and opera to classical, jazz, and cabaret artists. Add to that the special events, family entertainment, and year-round education programs, and the Center becomes the go-to destination for visitors interested in the arts. Home to the Pacific Symphony, the Philharmonic Society of Orange County, Opera Pacific, and the Pacific Chorale, the Center has four performance spaces that seat between 250 to 3000 people.
Visitors can also relax at the two casual cafes or enjoy a more upscale experience at the elegant Café Rouge. Not to be missed is the Center's free guided tour, a behind-the-scenes look at all the backstage areas, dressing and rehearsal rooms, and lobbies.
