FEATURED ON THE LISTED GUIDE
The Toronto Symphony Orchestra (TSO) is celebrating its 100th anniversary and they’re doing so in style.
On Saturday, September 24, they’ll be hosting an open house with a bunch of free events.
If you’ve always marvelled at the architecture of Roy Thomson Hall, now’s your chance to explore the building. There’s going to be a free tour where you’ll learn about its architecture and acoustic properties. Since capacity is limited, make sure to reserve your spot here.

For little ones, there’s story time as Daniel Bartholomew-Poyser, TSO’s principal education conductor and community ambassador, narrates Kiwis Can’t Play the Violin by TSO Education Manager Pierre Rivard.
