Vancouver Entertainment

Orpheum Theatre 
Originally opened on November 7, 1927 as a vaudeville house, the Orpheum was the largest and most opulent theatre on the Pacific Coast. The City of Vancouver purchased the theatre on March 19, 1974 and undertook a complete restoration of the theatre's interior. The Orpheum re-opened on April 2, 1977 as the permanent home of the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra and a restored concert hall that hosts a variety of pop, classical, choral and chamber recitals. 

Queen Elizabeth Theatre 
Built in 1959 by the City of Vancouver, the Queen Elizabeth Theatre is the home of Vancouver Opera and Ballet British Columbia. The 70 foot wide proscenium arch stage is the perfect multi-purpose venue for Broadway shows, pop and rock concerts, opera and dance, as well as live broadcast gala award ceremonies and telethons.

Vancouver Symphony Orchestra 
The Vancouver Symphony is the largest arts organization west of Ontario, and the third largest symphony orchestra in Canada. More than 140 concerts are performed annually by the Vancouver Symphony - in the historic Orpheum Theatre, as well as in Abbotsford, Delta, Surrey, New Westminster, West Vancouver, North Vancouver, and the Chan Centre for the Performing Arts on the campus of the University of British Columbia.
