Bliss Centre for the Performing Arts
Overlooking the harbor from the Southern Foreshore near the Supreme Court, this stunning building houses the Institute of Creative Arts and hosts cultural and arts events throughout the year—you could hear a Maya singer or see a Garifuna dance group. Part of the National Institute of Culture and History, the Bliss's 600-seat theater is headquarters for the Belize International Film Festival, usually held in July. Dramas, children's festivals, dance, art displays, and other cultural and musical performances take place at various times. Most shows are in English, with Kriol often mixed in. Ticket prices typically range from BZ$10 to BZ$40, a bargain compared to what you'd pay for a theatrical performance back home. The facility also houses a small art gallery.
