Brockville Arts Centre is a historic theatre with approximately 700 seats, housed in a building whose origins date back to 1858. Originally used as a town hall and marketplace, the building gradually evolved into a theatrical venue, while a major restoration completed in 2009 combined its preserved heritage character with modern performing-arts standards. Today, the centre is known for the close connection between stage and audience and hosts theatre productions, concerts, comedy, dance and film screenings.
The auditorium is noted for its strong acoustics, clear sightlines and comfortable seating, creating an intimate atmosphere even for larger productions. The air-conditioned interior includes the main auditorium and balcony, while the lobby features exhibition space and a licensed bar. Accessible seating is available for visitors with reduced mobility, along with assistive listening devices for guests with hearing impairments.
The venue is located at King St W 235, Brockville, Canada. The main entrance faces King Street West, while free parking is available behind the building, including designated accessible spaces, leaving only a short walk from the car to the theatre.
