It’s been physically ready to rock since 2020 but the new 5,000-seat entertainment centre at Fallsview Casino Resort has been missing a couple of things.

The centre needed a revamp of their acoustics, which the owners, the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) and MGE Niagara Entertainment Inc. (Mohegan), were not happy about, saying the $140 million facility had to be “performance-ready” for the top-tier acts it hopes to attract.

Also, it needed a name. Today (August 31), they announced one and they didn’t have to stray too far. The new entertainment centre will be called the OLG Stage at Fallsview Casino…

Since it opened in June 2004, Fallsview has relied on their Avalon Theatre as a stage for performers.
