FirstOntario Performing Arts Centre

FirstOntario Performing Arts Centre was first class - no complaints! Tommy Emmanuel was spellbinding! Never seen anything like this! A must show for any guitar player. Warning - yo may experience an urge to sell your guitars, but don't worry - it will pass - keep practicing!

Great show in a great venue!

Absolutely wonderful! His musicality, his passion for preserving indigenous language and culture, his energy, everything about him is amazing.

We travelled from Guelph to watch the Jeromy Dutcher performance. It was our first visit to the Performance Centre, very nice facility. The evening was filled with superior performances right from the women's drum group thru to the standing ovation. The musicians assembled were highly skilled and very well suited to the energy and meaning of the evening. Thank you hosting such a gifted group and supporting a vital entertainer to our culture.

Another haunting and beautiful performance by matt Good

I really enjoyed this show. The participants really tried to take on the singer they were portraying. They sounded exceptionally good and interacted with the audience. Definately would recommend this show to my family and friends...I'm actually thinking of going to their performance in Brantford this November. I came away feeling good after seeing this show. Would definately recommend this to others

Fantastic concert put on by justin. This is a must see . He is one of the best musicians ,music writers and lyricists of today.

Primarily I was there for Justin Hayward, so having Mike as the opener was a really great bonus. It's difficult to find complimentary words for what Mike does since they've all been used so many times before, so all I would say is just go see him and experience the amazing playing and great fun interaction with the audience for yourself and find your own words. Given a choice, I would have loved a longer set from both Mike and Justin, but that just means I'm going to have to see them both again the next time they're here - either together or on their own

Justine was amazing. The opening guitarist was exceptional on his own. It was also great to see this guitarist in action supporting Justin during the second park of the concert. I highly recommend this concert.

Really nice venue. Friendly people. And what a treat to see Justin Hayward. Still sounds fantastic and his band members are quite talented. So glad I went.

Excellent showman, and a great guitarist for the great Justin Hayward. An incredible show. This is a must see.

Great venue, seeing kid koala is always a great time. This turntable orchestra is phenomenal and the interaction keeps you in the moment and is great for all ages. Would do it agAin..

Amazing experience. I took my 7 year old son and neither of us will forget the experience. Thank you!

A superb soulful performance.
