Get Ready for More at Ontario Place

The Ontario government has released new details about its exciting vision for the redevelopment of Ontario Place into a world-class, year-round destination.

The government is bringing more to Ontario Place with more beaches, more greenspace, more trails and more fun with the Ontario Science Centre, a year-round Live Nation concert venue and expanded food and beverage offerings.

The Ontario Science Centre will find its new home in a custom-built, state-of-the-art facility, as well as in the preserved and upgraded iconic Cinesphere and Pod complex. It will bring exciting science-based educational programming to the heart of Ontario Place, sparking curiosity and innovation for a new generation of visitors, while inspiring young people towards the jobs of the future.

The province is also finalizing an agreement with Live Nation that will create a new, year-round concert venue attraction. Building on 25 years of memories, the brand-new amphitheater will welcome 20,000 fans to an all-season venue, increasing its capacity, while also protecting its beloved grassy amphitheater.

We’re also engaging with the market about opportunities for a new and improved public marina at Ontario Place, which will include retail, dining and family-friendly activities, making it a place where people can socialize, grab a meal and enjoy the water, year-round.

Once complete, Ontario Place will create thousands of new jobs and attract an estimated four to six million visitors each year.

Together with our partners, we’re building an iconic space that’s fun for families, students and tourists to enjoy for generations to come.
