Free Tours of the Orpheum Theatre

Vancouver Civic Theatres is resuming guided tours of the Orpheum Theatre, one of the most beautiful concert halls in North America. Designated a National Heritage Site, the Orpheum was built in 1927. Each year the theatre hosts international musicians, popular concerts, and unique events; it is also home to the beloved Vancouver Symphony Orchestra.
