Please note the bar closes once the performance is in progress. Food and outside containers are not permitted in the auditorium. During select performances, all beverages, including alcoholic beverages, will be permitted in the auditorium. The Corporation of the Town of Oakville promotes the use of tap water and the reduction of bottled water use. For your convenience filtered water is available.

Doors to the main auditorium open 30 minutes prior to the performance. There will always be a house manager on hand to answer questions and assist patrons. Latecomers will be asked to wait until a suitable break in the performance before entering the auditorium

Mobile devices

Cell phones and other electronic devices should be muted and not used while in the theatre. Photography and recording devices are strictly prohibited inside the auditorium.

Parking

The theatre does not have its own parking lot. There are municipal lots located in the near vicinity. If a patron parks behind the theatre, they must climb a large number of stairs outside of the building to access the main Navy Street entrance. Parking in municipal lots is free after 6 p.m. from Monday through Saturday and all of Sunday. The stage door and loading dock, located behind the building on the east side, can be reached by turning right off of Randall Street or Navy Street, south of Lakeshore Road. There is one wheelchair parking spot on the east side and one on the west side of Navy Street and other accessible spots can be found in the municipal lots around the theatre. Please visit the Parking page for a detailed layout.

Sunday** : two hours prior to performance time.** If there are no performances scheduled, the box office is closed on weekends. Summer hours are 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.

Main auditorium

The Main Auditorium holds up to 485 patrons, including positions for up to four patrons using wheelchairs or scooters and their companions. All seats are within 55 feet of the stage. Learn more about the AEG Liebherr Auditorium.

Single seat policy

Oakville Centre ticketing does not allow for single seats to be left behind when purchasing tickets. This means that one ticket may not be purchased from a group of two, a pair may not be purchased from a group of three, six tickets from a group of seven, etc. The theatre is very intimate and allowing single seats to be left behind greatly reduces the number of pairs or groups that can be accommodated. If you don’t see the number of seats you are looking for, please call the box office for assistance. Our experienced staff can help you seat your party comfortably in the theatre!  And please keep in mind that we can be more flexible with ticket selection within 48 hours of the event.

Studio Theatre

The intimate Studio Theatre offers seating for up to 114 patrons. General admission performances have seating for 116 patrons. Learn more about the Studio Theatre.

Ticket exchanges

Ticket exchanges may only be made for another performance of the same event. Exchanges must be made with the box office at least 48 hours prior to the date shown on the original tickets and are subject to availability. An exchange fee per ticket will be applied. Exchange tickets.
