Sony Centre for the Performing Arts Tickets

Located in Toronto, the Sony Centre for the Performing Arts is Canada's largest theatre that features soft seats. First opened as the O'Keefe Centre in 1960, it was also once called the Hummingbird Centre. It has a notable history as it was built on the site of the Great Western Railway Terminal, which later turned into the Toronto Wholesale Fruit Market. The theatre opened to much fanfare and held many classic performances, and performers like Bob Dylan and Elton John have graced its stage. The National Ballet of Canada and the Canadian Opera Company have called this venue home at some point in their history. In 2006, the theatre was closed for two years for renovations, improving its accessibility and quality for stage performances. StubHub is where you can buy your Sony Centre for the Performing Arts tickets.
