Culturally, it is host to the Eastern Music Festival every year which brings upwards of fifty symphonic and classical musicians to Greensboro to perform.
Concerts are also hosted downtown to draw people to the city center. There is a ballet, several stage theaters, a comedy club, and of course a Civic Center that brings major musical and theatrical acts to town. Several art galleries display works by local and national artists. Add to that the fact that there are several colleges and universities hosting their own cultural, artistic, and creative endeavors and it becomes a great place to live.
Greensboro is most known for being the annual host of the NCAA college basketball tournament, which takes place annually at the Civic Center. The GSO Grasshoppers, a minor league baseball team, host regular games at their stadium in downtown Greensboro.
And UNCG has its own sports; our collegiate soccer teams have consistently been among the best in the country.
Internationalism and Multiculturalism. For a small city, Greensboro has exceptional access to international products and restaurants. Part of that comes from the fact that several different colleges and universities make their homes in the Greensboro area, which draws thousands of international students to the area. Specialty grocers for middle eastern, European, African, Indian, Asian, Russian and Latin goods are readily available in the city among others.
