Massey Hall is a beautiful, historic 2752 seat concert hall in the heart of Toronto that is also a designated heritage building under the Ontario Heritage Act. The Hall was home to the Toronto Symphony Orchestra as well as the Toronto Mendelssohn Choir prior to the opening of the Roy Thomson Hall in 1982.

Massey Hall was built in 1894 for a cost of just over $150,000. At that time it seated up to 3500 guests, however renovations during the 1940s reduced the capacity to the current 2752. The hall has had many famous dignitaries pass through its doors over the years and it has hosted performances by many famous artists.

Massey Hall continues to be a popular venue for many concerts and shows. For additional information about Massey Hall and upcoming concerts and events see the official website link below.

Massey Hall Reviews

Rated 4.6 out of 5 Star Rating

5 Star Rating Great venue! Went to Massey Hall for a concert and had an amazing experience. The acoustics are fantastic, the staff were friendly and well-organized, and the atmosphere felt both historic and intimate. Seats were comfortable and the sound quality was top-notch. Would definitely come back for another show!

5 Star Rating Gorgeous venue! I came here for PinkPantheress on Night 2 and the visuals were fantastic. I would recommend picking spots closer to the centre if you are on the third floor as there are big speakers that will block your view. Otherwise, most seats are fantastic and are comfortable.

5 Star Rating The Best U kidding I get emotional just writing this. Seen so many shows... Just recently I saw Jason Bohnam..Yes son of the late drummer John Bohnam's from LED ZEPPELIN. Jason and band played PHYSICAL GRAFFITI and it was epic and fill of nostalgic energy. But it was emotional for me because the last time I was there I saw my personal favourite and still CHRIS CORNELL on solo tour of Higher TRUTH album. Out of this world and miss him daily So ya! Keep on rockin the free world everyone because I sure am! Here's some FOOTAGE of Chris Cornell back at the Massey in 2017 and the most recent Jason Bohnam show weeks ago. Thank you Massey and keep em comin!! 🤟 Alduch Rose 🌹

4 Star Rating Absolutely amazing concert with fantastic sound. Note, the seats are rather uncomfortable and front row seats have zero leg room up against the barrier so if you're over 5’7 you're not going to fit save your money and stand on the floor your back and legs will thank me later.

5 Star Rating Liverpool 4 were awesome and they gave it all for nearly three hours. My only complaint was that we sat in front row in balcony and seating was very tight both with your neighbour as well as no knee space. Had to sit awkwardly to avoid pressing knees directly against the wall.
