With championship-caliber universities in our backyard, award-winning films about our storied sports teams, and athletes from two to 82 competing here, there’s no question that Durham needed a sports commission that could harness that type of potential.

We’re here now.

We’re new to Durham, but this isn’t our first rodeo; we’ve hosted local, regional and national championships and we build experiences for event owners that make an impact, encourage growth and benefit stakeholders. It doesn’t hurt that Durham is the perfect place to make a victorious debut. We’re a homerun for event planners, families and athletes, and we’re a day’s drive or an hour-long flight away from half the U.S. population. Come for the competition. Stay to play. We’re here to make sure it all goes smoothly.
