Bandshell Park

Bandshell was built in 1936 as an open-air concert venue, located in the exhibition center on the shore of Lake Ontario. Enjoy the grass under your feet at a 160,000 square foot community event or holiday celebration.

To watch the band perform live on the Bandshell stage, their outdoor exhibitors are scattered throughout the park, and attendees gather in the shade of the trees. Located near the wind turbines, Acqua Dolce Resto and the Toronto Event Centre, your outdoor activities will enjoy the open air and lake views of the city centre.
