Toronto’s much-anticipated new live entertainment venue History, a collaboration between Drake and Live Nation, opened its doors for the first time last night to 2500 concert lovers as the venue kicked off with a sold-out and electrifying performance headlined by Jack Antonoff’s indie-pop band Bleachers. Please see a link to high res images from the evening below.

Located at 1663 Queen Street East in Toronto’s Beaches neighborhood, the 2,500-capacity world-class venue is quickly establishing itself as a must-play destination for local and international acts touring Canada. With a state-of-the-art audiovisual system and an incredibly intimate feel, guests will enjoy up-close entertainment with their favorite artists that is unrivaled in Toronto. The site will also add a significant contribution to the east end’s vibrant culture and community, delivering a wide array of eclectic music and arts programming, with plans to host 200 events annually.
 
“We are thrilled to bring History to life in Toronto with live entertainment that we know will elevate the city’s concert-going experience,” said Riley O’Connor, Chairman, Live Nation Canada. “We can’t wait for both fans and artists alike to experience our newest destination music venue.”
