Calgary’s home of contagious creativity

Located in the heart of the Olympic Plaza Cultural District in downtown Calgary, the EPCOR CENTRE for the Performing Arts is where passion and creativity meet, mix, mingle and occasionally, collide.

Proving that this truly is the place to be, almost 400,000 people experience the excitement of the EPCOR CENTRE yearly at 1,800-plus performances and events, including: live theatre, dance, spoken word and readings, children’s events, experimental theatre, art exhibits, public forums, weddings, training sessions, meetings, arts education activities, sporting events and competition, award ceremonies and concerts from symphonic music to jazz, folk, blues, world, rock and much more.

Occupying a full city block, EPCOR CENTRE is a six level complex measuring over 400,000 square feet (almost 10 acres). It is one of the three largest centres in Canada. The excellent downtown location offers an unrivalled variety of vibrant and attractive spaces, including four theatres, and the Jack Singer Concert Hall, home to one of Canada's largest pipe organs, the Carthy Organ. EPCOR CENTRE also houses rehearsal halls, theatre workshops, offices, meeting rooms, a café, radio station, salon spa and gift store, with art works from community groups and galleries displayed throughout. Performance spaces range from the 1800 seat Jack Singer Concert Hall, one of the most beautiful and acoustically acclaimed venues in North America, to the intimate black box setting of the 60-seat Motel theatre.
