Let’s celebrate unforgettable music moments at Massey Hall together! It's all thanks to music fans and supporters like you, whose dedication and enthusiasm continue to fill our historic venue with joy.
Dedicating a seat is more than a tribute to Massey Hall’s legacy; it’s a way to give back to our community and help shape an inspiring future for generations to come. Join us on this journey of giving by dedicating a seat today!
Seats and rows are available to be named at three levels:
Gallery Seat
Gallery seats have been designed to reflect the original 1894 style, a special tribute to the Hall’s historic roots. Seats have new enhanced comfort features elevating the patron experience in the uppermost level of the Allan Slaight Auditorium.
Engraved plaques for Gallery level will be affixed to the seat-back.
Balcony Seat
A favoured spot for many patrons, balcony seats provide outstanding views. When seated in the balcony, the intimate atmosphere makes patrons feel as if they could reach down and touch the artist.
Your dedication will be inscribed on a plaque and affixed on an armrest of a seat.
Orchestra Seat
Orchestra seats provide a direct sight line to the Allan Slaight Stage and are nestled amongst a collection of composer portrait stained glass windows. New Orchestra seats are also retractable with a horseshoe shaped parterre surrounding the perimeter of the floor.
Your dedication will be inscribed on a plaque and affixed on an armrest of a seat.
