The main venue for theater, dance, music, and the arts in Belize City is Bliss Center for the Performing Arts, which seats 600. As a small, provincial city, Belize City rarely attracts international headliners. It's rare to have more than one or two shows a week at the center, and most of these are local performances -- a children's dance group or a young singer's debut concert. You might see a karaoke show or a performance by a Garifuna dance or music group. Concert organizers try to bring in performing talent from around the country, and on a Saturday night you could hear a Maya singer from Toledo or a marimba band from Benque Viejo del Carmen. Most shows are in English, with Creole often mixed in. Ticket prices vary but typically range from BZ$10 to BZ$30.
