This is really a 4.5 or of 5 but again, no half star option. Attended a 3 day festival here and had a chance to really take in three space and all it offered. I'll start with the pristine nature this venue is kept in on all levels, including the bathrooms, even though this is an older event space. Johnathan and Joe venue staff were friendly, knowledgable, attentive, efficient and accommodating in their dealings. The space itself is pretty unique as it used to be a church and the ceilings are the old school, wood triangle so sounds travels well. It can be a drawback if there's music with heavy bass but they do a good job of monitoring that closely. The half star deduction is based on the fact that accessibility is painfully missing. There are quite a few steps patrons have to climb, both inside and outside, in order to enter the Great Hall. If air circulation was totally within their control, that would be another point raised as the Great Hall can get a little hot with larger numbers but when that is addressed through air conditioning, the foyer is now frigid. Once those issues are addressed this would get 5 stars.
Went there for my school play. Got there 10min late cause of the bus but the door was close and it said that it will reopen 45min before the next play . Got there there 7:10pm and next play was at 9pm . I think they should at least let people get in and wait in the hall specially in winter cause it was freezing outside.
It was really cool! The space was beautiful. I was there for a more experimental music festival experience than I am normally used to and it was fantastic! The sound was great and the staff working the event were very friendly. The acts were expertly curated and the music was incredible. If I knew more about the venue I could say more but I highly recommend the Women From Space festival.
Beautiful wedding venue! The centre was a perfect oasis for the small ceremony and reception.
Small, intimate venue with great sound. Definitely will attend another event here for sure. Short walk north of Bathurst Station. Attended the Frequency Fridayz event
A beautiful place, but I was very hot that day, as there was no cool air inside. I went there for an event, so I enjoyed my self
Beautiful venue, worth the visit just to see the building design itself. Acoustics seemed fair although there was a bit of technical issues with the performance. I'm hoping it was just for this show but that's why I've reduced to 4 stars.
Wonderful venue for events and arts center
Beautiful venue with an amazing stage and outstanding acoustics. An absolute aural treat.
The centre for culture stands out from the lineup of commercial and residential constructs on Bathurst St. Looks like a modern European architectural piece, with light and spacious interior. Close to tram, subway, and bus stops. It has clean but slightly old toilets, spacious hall for events, and friendly staff.
