Description
The Centre in Vancouver for Performing Arts is regarded as one of the premiere entertainment facilities in the city. The Centre is dramatic constructed and crafted with the highest quality technology, staging, acoustics, seating, fixtures, and furnishings available. From the spiraling glass cone to the curvilinear marble staircase, white marble floors reflected endlessly by the faceted-mirrored walls to the massive arched ceiling, is an architectural kaleidoscope.
