Rated 4.6 out of 5 Star Rating

5 Star Rating Love all the orchestras! The orchestra is incredible and every single time, it amazes! We went to see the pines of Rome and it was my favorite of all time, the last part of it was incredible and the switch from light to dark and it growing back up was amazing. The writing is a great pair to understand the music and gives you something to think about while listening to the music, but the writing is very well written too! Everyone is super nice in the place, and the tickets were reasonably priced!

4 Star Rating Wow, what a spectacular venue! It's been a few years since I've been here and it's just as incredible as I remembered. This place is beautiful, inside and out! The acoustics are perfect, with clean sounds and no unwanted echoes. The lobby and waiting areas outside the seating area is spacious and clean. I only wish the washrooms were easier to locate and access. If you ever have a chance to visit Roy Thomson Hall for a show, just go!

5 Star Rating TSO performing a movie soundtrack to the movie. Amazing performance & experience! They brought back the magic of watching a movie. Event was kid friendly & casual. Also parking on location was both super convenient & excellently priced @ $16 flat. TIP: leave your coat in the car. Thank me later....

4 Star Rating Enjoyed two concerts and one natgeo speaker series here. Fantastic theater and the acoustics are perfect. The seating is pretty old and even the carpeting seems old. Restrooms are too few and there's a long lineup during intermission or after the shows. It can be modernized. The staff is very nice and polite. There are few places around the hall where you can buy drinks - alcoholic or non-alcoholic.
