Burlington Performing Arts Centre, Performing arts venue in Burlington, Canada
The Burlington Performing Arts Centre is a performance venue in Burlington with two theatres of different sizes. The main hall seats about 720 people, while a smaller studio space provides additional performance options, and a glass-roofed lobby connects the areas together.
Construction of the centre began in 2009 on the site of a former police station and opened in 2011. The building replaced an existing structure and was developed as a new cultural venue for the community.
The centre presents theatrical productions and musical performances that connect audiences with diverse artistic expressions. Regular shows here bring local residents and visitors together to experience different forms of performance art.
The building is straightforward to navigate, with clear signage between the theatre spaces and the lobby for all visitors. Visitors should plan to arrive early to explore the facility and find their seating.
This is the only performing arts venue of its kind in Ontario to receive LEED Gold certification for environmental building practices. The recognition shows the building met high standards for sustainability in its design and construction.
