Top Rated Concerts and Shows in Markham

"Toronto is famous for the Toronto International Film Festival, which delivers as much clout in the sphere of film as the likes of Cannes and Sundance.

The building houses five public cinemas, two galleries and three learning studios."

"The TIFF Bell Lightbox is a cultural centre and also the headquarters of the much-awaited Toronto International Film Festival.

"The Princess of Wales Theatre is the newest addition to the Mirvish family of theatres in Toronto’s entertainment district.

"Massey Hall is one of the oldest concert halls in Toronto, opened in 1894. Architect Sidney R Badgley designed the theatre with a Neoclassical facade and interiors that feature Moorish elements, such as scalloped ceiling hangings with intricate trims and ogee balcony arches. Originally, the auditorium was constructed to seat 3,500 people but, after renovations in the 1940s, the capacity was reduced to 2,765."

A host to more than 100 events annually, the Hall can seat up to 2,765 people in two balconies and a ground floor."

"The Royal Alexandra Theatre—or the Royal Alex, as it’s known—is a pretty spiffy affair. The newly restored 1907 Beaux-Arts triumph is, in fact, North America’s first properly royal theater. It gained its title thanks..."

"We are certainly not deluding ourselves by suggesting that the opera is suddenly gratis. However, there are a series of free concerts in the Richard Bradshaw Amphitheatre from September to May in jazz, piano, vocal, dance, chamber and world music categories. Walking into the Canadian Opera Company and viewing the majestic staircases and grandiose ceilings, it will be hard to believe that you have paid nothing for a fine arts experience."

"The Canadian Opera Company unveiled its amazing building in 2006 in the Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts. With majestic staircases, grandiose ceilings and pitch-perfect acoustics, going to the opera quickly became a dream of an evening in the heart of downtown Toronto. This is Canada's first and only custom-built opera house and it has a European vibe that beckons you to put on your best ballgown or bow tie."
