Performing Arts
Anchorage had an orchestra before it had paved streets. So while Anchorage is famous for its outdoor activities and scenic beauty, you'll find an impressive selection of world-class productions - including international talent in music, dance, and theater. Both professional and amateur companies host presentations at the Alaska Center for the Performing Arts and various other venues. See our Events Calendar for performances and dates.
