Salle J.- Antonio-Thompson, Performance hall and heritage site in downtown Trois-Rivières, Canada.

The three-floor performance venue features architectural elements and provides seating for 1,033 visitors in the historic district of Trois-Rivières.

Architect Daniel John Crighton designed the building in 1927, and the hall opened its doors on April 7, 1928, following the city's reconstruction after the 1908 fire.

The interior displays Art Deco decorations by Emmanuel Briffa, with frescoes and detailed ornaments that represent the artistic standards of early 20th century theaters.

Located at 374 des Forges Street, the venue accommodates concerts, theater productions, and private events through its modernized technical facilities.

The municipal government acquired and renamed the former Capitol Theater to honor local musician Joseph-Antonio Thompson, preserving it from division into smaller cinema spaces.
