Roy Thomson Hall Toronto Reviews
Rated out of 5
Great venue, clean, large and centrally located. Good views from all seats, a nice atmosphere for a concerts, shows etc and the staff were friendly throughout.
The only reason I’m giving 4 instead of 5 stars is that parking and traffic around the area can be a bit hectic, and concessions inside are quite pricey, and to get in is chaos around show time, people budding in line, coming through various entrances and bottleneck at the main inside doors. Still, it’s a great venue and definitely worth visiting to watch / hear your favorite performers.

What a beautiful theatre!!!! Went to see the Star Wars movie with the Toronto Symphony and what an amazing experience it was - truly a must go see event.
The performance was absolutely incredible. Toronto's Symphony is second to none and the theatre is absolutely stunning. They have E.T., Home Alone and other productions I'm definitely going to look into going to in the near future!
The facility was clean, welcoming, warm and tidy. Couldn't have asked for more.
