The Peace Center just dropped its 2026-27 season, and it reads like a greatest-hits compilation of what makes the venue one of the best mid-size performing arts centers in the Southeast. Forty shows spanning pop, classical, Broadway, comedy, and dance — anchored by a handful of names that will sell out fast.

The headliners

Hozier (October 3) — The Irish singer-songwriter plays the Concert Hall on his "Unreal Unearth" arena-to-theater tour. This is a rare club-sized show for an artist who just sold out Madison Square Garden. Expect secondary market prices to be painful.

Hamilton (November 10-22) — The blockbuster musical returns for a two-week run. The first Greenville engagement, in 2023, sold out in 90 minutes. Season subscribers get first access.

Renee Fleming (February 12) — The legendary soprano performs an intimate recital with piano accompaniment. Fleming has been a Peace Center favorite since her first appearance in 2015.

Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit (March 8) — The Americana star makes his fourth Peace Center appearance. Isbell has said publicly that the Greenville audience is one of his favorites on tour. Expect a setlist that leans on new material from the album dropping this fall.

Deep cuts

Beyond the marquee names: the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater (January), a one-night-only screening of "The Princess Bride" with a live orchestra (December), comedian John Mulaney (April), and the Greenville Symphony performing Beethoven's Ninth to close the season in May.

Tickets

Season subscriptions (minimum 5 shows) go on sale May 1. Single-show tickets go on sale June 15. Subscribe first if Hamilton is on your list — it will not last to single-show sales.
