Known as the capital of East Carolina, Greenville captures everything great about an American college town while also offering much more. In 2012, Forbes magazine listed Greenville as one of the “Best Places for Business and Careers” in the country, and the city’s arts scene is thriving, too. The Greenville Museum of Art features rotating exhibitions often showcasing local artists, and the theater community welcomes performers of all ages with productions by the Greenville Theater Project, the Magnolia Arts Center, and the Smiles and Frowns Playhouse. Then there’s the Greenville Civic Ballet and the North Carolina Academy of Dance Arts, both keeping the city’s performing arts culture active year round.
Of course, Greenville’s vitality revolves around East Carolina University (ECU), the state’s fourth largest university. With concerts, theater productions, films, and lectures, ECU adds to the city’s vibrant creative output. And it wouldn’t be a true college town without sports: When the ECU Pirates host a home football game during the fall semester, fans flock to the Uptown District for a festive pep-rally called “Freeboot Friday,” featuring a giant inflatable pirate ship, cheerleaders, live music, and activities for kids.
Greenville’s Uptown District also hosts a Halloween street party every fall and is the place to go for restaurants, bars, and nightlife. Other Uptown events include the Uptown Art Walk, Sunday in the Park, and the Umbrella Market for crafts and local growers. Outdoor enthusiasts can head just east of the Uptown District to the South Tar River Greenway for walking and biking, then cross over the river to the 324-acre River Park North for hiking trails, campgrounds, fishing, and boating.
Transportation
The Greenville Area Transit (GREAT) provides bus services throughout the city. Greenville’s Uptown District, which includes many of the city’s popular tourist sites, is compact enough to be easily traversable on foot. Visitors can also rent cars from major car rental companies or use ride-sharing apps.
