Event Centre

In April 2024, Greater Sudbury City Council approved plans to proceed with the development of a new Event Centre in the downtown south district. This modern facility will serve as a premier destination for sports and entertainment, providing a vibrant and dynamic space for residents and visitors alike.

The event centre will be designed as a state-of-the-art venue to accommodate concerts, sporting events, community gatherings and other unforgettable experiences.

Community engagement results are in!

Between March and May 2025, we asked the community to tell us what you envisioned for the new downtown event centre.

We hosted 10 engagement sessions and hosted several pop-up displays at community events to get feedback from you about the new event centre.

Our goal was to gather your ideas to ensure the new facility meets the needs of the community and use your input to inform the event centre’s design.
