About Us

The Byrnes Performing Arts Center was opened in the spring of 2007. The venue reflects the passion for the arts that brought it to life, from the pleasing architecture to the glass art chandelier for the foyer. The venue is proud to house a gleaming concert Steinway grand piano. To learn more, go to Our Dream - The History of the Byrnes Performing Arts Center.

The state-of-the-art performance hall can seat up to 693, with a lower section and upper section. The stage is fully equipped with audio and lighting equipment, ready for presentations and staged events. The facility’s Orchestra Pit is available for performance events.

The foyer is suited for meetings with groups up to 60 people. A large screen is provided along with 6' tables and chairs. Additional rooms are available in the High School during non-school hours.

Free Parking is available at the Center and at the adjacent High School. Arriving at The Byrnes Performing Arts Center is easy. We are located just off Highway 9, at Crown Ridge Blvd., beyond the covered bridge. A short drive from Smokey Point and Downtown Arlington, where you will find dining and overnight accommodations.
