John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts

What an incredible gift inspired by the Kennedy Foundation! There are multiple theatres varying in size, and special rooms dedicated to other countries. You can take a self-guided tour, but I recommend contacting your senator to schedule a guided tour. Aside from the rotating shows, they offer complimentary concerts most evenings also. It's easily accessible from the Metro and offers stunning views from the rooftop.

This is a great place for concerts and plays. Personally I think that the facade of the building doesn’t make justice to the beauty of their halls and venues. The balcony is really nice, you can enjoy great sunsets over there. Every evening they have a free show and happy hour in the bar.

First time there. Good play, great company. Enjoyed walking around the outdoor balcony and seeing 360°. A bit confusing with which elevator goes where but company knew where we were going so all was well. $23 to park on site ... Yikes, I am poor cause that shocked me. Excellent art exhibit in main lobby. Should go just to see that if in DC.

I love this place. The Kennedy Center is amazing. And they have free performances every night. Around 7 pm I believe . All you have to do is walk in and enjoy the show! Sometimes you can catch a great international act here for free ! I like that our tax dollars are going to something worth while. It I nice that people that couldn't afford to pay to have some culture, have a free option. Culture at half the price ! Go to the free shows every chance you can !

Great venue, especially the free shows that they put on. There is a free show every single night if the year at 6pm. They are great! Admittedly, most of there acts are local talent, but I have never been disappointed by what I have seen! The other shows are even better! I have not seen them actually there, but have seen the same shows at other locations. Would love the opportunity to see more here.
