It was such a great experience going to the Raymond F. Kravis Center for the performing arts. Let’s start by saying that the location of the center is located in West Palm Beach and is absolutely beautiful. The center itself is very clean very ...
safe and the staff are very, very professional and very, very helpful. There is food and drinks for purchase available at the Center. Also there is plenty of parking with reasonable parking fees. We had such a great time last night where we went to go see the Commodore’s. It was so much fun. It was amazing and it was definitely worth going. You won’t go wrong seeing any type of performance at the Kravis center for the performing arts. It’s definitely worth it.

We went for a Cirque du Soleil Christmas performance. It was so fun! The Kravis Center itself is sooo beautiful. The employees are friendly. The seats are comfortable. I would definitely recommend seeing a show here!

One of our favorite cultural spots in town! We love bringing our family to the shows. We had the chance to watch Cirque du Soleil this Holiday Season and the experience was phenomenal. From the organization of their team, to their kindness and ...
care. I love the fact that there is a bar, serving generous drinks, and that they are also focused on families and little ones when the shows are meant to be for them.
Great experience and WPB spot for those people living in the city and surrounding areas! As a real estate agent, I love the fact that our cities offer a nice variety of culture and arts, via theaters like this one. Absolutely recommend the experience!

I recently went to see Nicole Scherzinger at the Kravis Center for the Performing Arts and it was an incredible experience. I’ve also seen several musicals there over the years and it’s always been fantastic.
I drive about an hour to get there...
, but it’s absolutely worth it every time. The theater is beautiful, very spacious, and it really feels like every seat has a great view of the stage. The sound, the atmosphere, and the overall experience make it one of my favorite places to see live performances.
Highly recommend it if you enjoy musicals, concerts, or live shows. I’m already looking forward to my next visit! 🎭✨

Tonight, I attended Diana Krall’s 7:30 pm performance at the Kravis Center in West Palm Beach, expecting an evening of elegance and world-class music. Unfortunately, the experience was marred by an unnecessary and unpleasant incident.
Befor...
e the show began, there was no announcement, signage, or communication of any kind indicating that filming was prohibited. During the performance, numerous audience members were openly recording videos on their phones. I, like many others, recorded a few short clips.
Midway through the show, a rude and pretentious couple approached me in an arrogant and confrontational manner, insisting that I stop filming. Rather than addressing the situation respectfully or involving staff discreetly, they chose to escalate it and called security.
When security arrived, I was told to stop filming. I questioned why this rule was being enforced only on me, while many other patrons around us were clearly filming without issue. No reasonable explanation was given.
What made the situation truly unacceptable was the behavior of the couple themselves. They made several derogatory and classist remarks, including telling me to “go back to Miami” and that I “didn’t belong in Palm Beach.” Their comments were offensive, discriminatory, and completely out of place in a venue that prides itself on culture and sophistication.
This encounter reflected far more on their character than mine. Their behavior was low-level, hostile, and unbecoming of any audience member, let alone one attending a performance of this caliber. The attached video speaks for itself.
While Diana Krall’s performance was, as expected, exceptional, this incident significantly detracted from the overall experience at the Kravis Center.
