The Haw River Ballroom

is a beautiful space set in the former Dye House of Saxapahaw’s Historic Cotton Mill. With three levels, a riverside deck, a concessions bar and coffee shop, a full service stage and sound system, gorgeous historic detail, solar and geothermal power and an idyllic rural setting just minutes from Chapel Hill there is just no other place quite like it. We won’t go on – just come see.

Featuring Live Music, Weddings and Special Events, Theater, Classes Conferences, Lectures, Show Choir, Pickin’ Sessions and Dancing.

Cup 22, our coffee shop, is open from 8am – 9pm weekdays and 9am – 9pm weekends.

“a 700-capacity music venue that’s arguably the most elegant and interesting nonmunicipal performance space in the state.” Grayson Currin – THE INDY

“a room that raises the bar for area entertainment. A wonder of concept, design and execution, the ballroom perfectly mirrors its surroundings by repurposing the old and trashed into bold, functional space. It’s a brilliant work of art…” -Grayson Currin, THE INDY
