    About the Theater

    Designed by acclaimed Canadian architect Moshe Safdie, The Centre in Vancouver for Performing Arts is the premiere performing arts facility in Western Canada. As striking as its elliptical companion building Library Square, the splendor of The Centre is dramatic. From the spiraling glass cone to the curvilinear marble staircase, The Centre is an architectural kaleidoscope.

    The Auditorium offers 1,821-1,858 lush purple velvet seats with uncompromising sightlines and impeccable acoustics. It is complimented by the stage that measures 102 feet wide by 52 feet deep and can accommodate 87 line-sets. Audiences will find themselves enveloped in a modern but ageless facility.

    Features include:

    • 1,821-1,858 three level live theatre auditorium
    • Striking marble lobby with a magnificent curving staircase
    • Two awe-inspiring foyers with expansive arched ceilings
    • Full bar and food service on all four levels
    • Washroom facilities located on all four levels
    • VIP suite with full service bar and private washrooms
    • Live-stage with a 20-60 seat orchestra pit
    • "Phonic Ear" FM hearing impaired system
    Built in 1995, The Centre was originally named the Ford Centre for Performing Arts. During its tenure as Vancouver's premier performing arts facility, leading Broadway productions were showcased. Among others, patrons enjoyed Showboat, Sunset Boulevard, Phantom of the Opera, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Riverdance, and Ragtime.
