CELEBRATING MASSEY HALL 124 YEARS to Feature Performances By Jim Cuddy, Sarah Harmer, and More

To celebrate Massey Hall's 124th anniversary, join us Thursday, June 14 as several Massey Hall alumni gather and perform for an historic night of music. Performing double duty as both featured performers and the house band, Whitehorse will lead an all-star lineup including Jim Cuddy, Sarah Harmer, Sam Roberts and Buffy Sainte-Marie, with more artists to be announced soon. All tickets for this landmark event are $18.94, to honour the year that Massey Hall was gifted to the citizens of Toronto.

Since first opening its doors on June 14, 1894, Massey Hall has hosted the world's greatest performers and cemented its position as one of the premier concert venues in the world.
