This project is a part of the UWC Dilijan College Campus, situated on 88 hectares of land, located within the National Park of Dilijan. UWC Dilijan College is the first project in Armenia to receive a BREEAM certification.

The UWC Dilijan Performing Arts Centre will provide a world-class concert space for orchestral performances, choral recitals, school assemblies, plays, musicals and examinations.

The complex comprises a 650 seated state-of-the-art concert hall offering facilities for chamber music recitals and classical concerts. An additional theatre space will provide flexible staging for plays, performances, rehearsals and master classes, seating 250 persons.

The music department consists of practice rooms and classrooms, a music library and recording studios will provide ample space provision so that the extra-curricular music making requirements appropriate to a school of this size and ambition are provided.

It is hoped that the Performing Arts Centre will not only feature at the heart of musical and social events during the school calendar, but also act as a focal point for the wider Dilijan area as a whole.
