History combines the lasting elements of the past with the brightest visions of the future to bring top-tier acts that set a new standard for the live experience in the city. The building includes a convertible general admission area and reserved seating configurations for all types of functions – from concerts, live entertainment, and galas to community programs and events. With a multi-level layout and modern amenities, History is also the perfect venue for corporate events, private functions, receptions and more. VIP Experiences are also available with a selection of floor and box suites. A premium side-stage reservation could begin at the doors with a private entrance to the exclusive space, equipped with a personal bar and private washrooms just steps away from the stage.
Committed to supporting arts and culture, History will launch a community arts program aimed at supporting local youth’s artistic aspirations through both exposure and financial support. Art students in the area will have the opportunity to submit a portfolio that showcases their style and skill to be considered for a commissioned opportunity to create band artwork for an upcoming show. Multiple recipients will be chosen annually and awarded with a generous bursary in addition to having their creations promoted at the venue, online and in-print. History has partnered with The Food Dudes to bring guests an extraordinary and modern culinary experience. General admission fans can grab the brand’s staple Blondies Pizza, while a curated premium food menu of shareables is available for those in the Box and Mezzanine space. The venue has also partnered with Nobis, a brand entrenched in community and the cross section between fashion and culture. Truly embracing the shared values of celebrating a performance driven lifestyle, Nobis customers will receive free access to the Nobis Coat Checks found onsite on both the main level as well as the Mezzanine.
