Arts & Culture
Burlington’s rich arts scene makes us the ideal cultural hotspot if popular masterpieces, indie plays, artisan galleries, and performing arts festivals are just your ticket. Hip galleries, lakeside Vermont Symphony Orchestra concerts, Shakespeare in the Park, and Art Hops are just a taste of the loftier and intriguing treasures you’ll savor here.
Our local theaters and arts organizations have cultivated a strong tradition of stellar cultural events, drawing in artsy visitors from around the globe. You’re sure to stumble upon multiple intimate galleries, browse unique pieces hanging in cozy coffee shops, or catch a free flick at our Black Box Theater on the waterfront. If planning ahead or larger events are more your style, a peek into our events calendar reveals the internationally popular Burlington Discover Jazz Festival and a thriving Flynn Center for the Performing Arts, luring thousands to our creative culture.

What puts all of these events over the top is their location — our breathtaking natural beauty makes the ideal venue for the artistic spirit of Burlington.
