Carlsbad Municipal School District

The Performing Arts Center is a dynamic venue designed to serve both the school and the greater community, featuring a 1,600-seat auditorium for school-wide events, large-scale student performances, and community gatherings. More than a performance space, it provides students with hands-on, behind-the-scenes experience in professional productions – preparing them for careers in film, theater, hospitality, graphic arts, and related industries. With the ability to host traveling theatrical, musical, and dance performances, welcoming common areas for social functions, and state-of-the-art technology, the center serves as a vibrant hub where Carlsbad’s arts programs can grow, collaborate, and thrive.
