Our daughter belongs to a phenomenal dance company and the year end performances are here at The Living Arts Center. The set up and seating are great, although the temperature for the audience could be tweaked. Also signs specifying CASH ONLY for food and drink because during intermission people are waiting in a crazy line only to find out when you are being served CASH ONLY
Beautiful scenic, lit, ambience, and auditory site. Must experience for any event. Easy access and not a bad seat in the house.
Not open yet due to pandemic, hope it will resume in the short run
More than just entertainment, Live Restaurant is wonderful, great food with wonderful service and staff!
One of the best place for any event, good space for seating. Attended two cultural events and the experience was amazing.
New building with all newest , light stage and state of the art equipment.
Great Place to Visit with the kids. For adults too, the Orchestra Hall and lots of fun activities.
I ve seen several concerts here and it s always good. Sound is amazing! I usually eat dinner here before the show and I love the buffet. Met Hazel McCormick while having dinner here once.
Was here for an exhibition. Spacious and good ambient.
It never disappoints! Check their website for upcoming shows. Great venue with plenty of parking. Check it out!
Good acoustics! Decent crush space! Tons of loos! Could be posher, make it a little more of a package.
The stage wasn't bad and the view was decent but the atmosphere and ambiance was greatly lacking.
Small but really nice venue. Easy to get in and out. Free underground parking after 7pm
First class civic facility. Mississauga does things right.
Second time taking a course here! Very pleased with the calibre of the programs/instructors.
It was the first time in Christmas with Clemons and that was amazing
Great layout of hall. Amazing light and camera effects. Refreshment bar on site. Multiple levels accessible by stairs. Elevator on site. Great areas to take photos.
Working here on film location. Nice place, but one of the more difficult for film crews to work due to tight rules and enforcement as well as limited parking.

The Living Arts Centre (LAC) is a not-for-profit organization located in the heart of Mississauga's City Centre. For over 20 years, it has been promoting the arts, supporting local artists, and showcasing talent from around the world. The LAC is a hub for creativity and culture, offering art courses, camps for kids, and performing arts events that provide entertainment to the community.
The LAC was established in 1997 with a mission to enrich lives through arts education and cultural experiences. Since then, it has become one of Canada's largest multidisciplinary art centres with six performance venues including theatres, recital halls, an exhibition space as well as studios for visual arts classes.
One of the unique features of LAC is its commitment to supporting local artists by providing them with opportunities to showcase their work. The centre also hosts exhibitions featuring works by emerging artists from across Canada.
In addition to promoting local talent, LAC also brings in renowned performers from around the world. From classical music concerts to contemporary dance performances and theatre productions - there is always something happening at LAC that caters to all tastes.
