DPAC (Durham Performing Arts Center) announced a new partnership today with Sport Durst Automotive Group.

As one of the top ten ranked theaters and performing arts centers in the U.S., DPAC presents one-of-a-kind live entertainment, welcoming up to 600,000 guests per year to over 250 performances. Offering “something for everyone,” the stage at DPAC comes alive each season with spectacular Broadway productions, the very best of concerts and comedy, family shows and special events of all kinds.

Beginning this season, Sport Durst Automotive Group will be the official and exclusive automotive dealer group of DPAC. In addition, the theater’s VIP membership program, known as the President’s Club, will officially be rebranded as the Sport Durst President’s Club at DPAC.

DPAC’s President’s Club, one of the top VIP Broadway subscription programs in the country, is Broadway’s ultimate season ticket where members enjoy the very best seats and VIP amenities to every one of the brand-new hit shows that are part of Broadway at DPAC. With center orchestra seating, access to a members-only hospitality area, VIP parking directly adjacent to DPAC and other exclusive benefits, this membership program has been an important part of keeping DPAC self-sustaining since 2008.

Sport Durst’s sponsorship will include extensive branding onsite throughout the members-only hospitality area, as well as online, in social media, via direct mail and in printed Broadway programs.

“We are excited to begin this new partnership with Sport Durst Automotive Group, a respected local business with a long-standing commitment to our community,” said Bob Klaus, General Manager of DPAC. “Sport Durst’s dedication to customer service and community engagement aligns perfectly with DPAC’s mission to provide exceptional experiences both on and off the stage. We look forward to working together with Sport Durst to create meaningful moments that bring people together and strengthen our connection to the community.”

"We are thrilled to partner with DPAC - a true gem in our community!” said Sport Durst, President and CEO of Sport Durst Automotive Group. “Sport Durst Automotive Group believes in driving more than cars; Sport Durst drives connections, creativity, relationships, and community spirit. We are proud to support the arts and the people who make the Triangle community shine.”
