DURHAM

Durham is a university town defined by the University of New Hampshire, the state's largest public institution. While the town itself is small, the Whittemore Center Arena on campus brings concerts and events that serve the broader Seacoast region.

Whittemore Center Arena is a multi-purpose arena on the UNH campus that hosts touring concerts alongside hockey games and university events. Durham's downtown along Main Street has bars and restaurants that occasionally feature live music, but the arena is the primary draw for dedicated show-goers.

Durham has the energy of a college town, with a young population and a walkable Main Street just minutes from campus. The audience skews toward UNH students and faculty, though arena shows pull from the wider Seacoast.

Tip: Whittemore Center is on the UNH campus. Parking is available in campus lots, but check event-day rules. Downtown is a short walk from campus.
