Great Canadian Entertainment is pleased to announce the grand opening of a brand-new Live Entertainment and Special Events Venue at Great Blue Heron Casino & Hotel, one of the company's premier destinations for gaming and entertainment. Nestled on the picturesque land of the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation (MSIFN) near Lake Scugog in Durham Region, Great Blue Heron Casino & Hotel is a beacon of entertainment, hospitality, and excitement for guests from across the province.
The new entertainment and special events venue boasts a total capacity of nearly 800, making it an ideal space for a wide range of events, from live performances and concerts to corporate gatherings. The versatile layout allows for various seating configurations, with options for round tables set banquet style, theatre seating, or general admission options allowing for larger events.
