History
Built in 1936, the Eglinton Theatre epitomized the art deco style of Canadian theatre design. Well-known for its architecture, the theatre became known as the “Show Place of Toronto” and received the Royal Architecture Institute of Canada Bronze Medal.
The stunning interior and furnishings drew people from all over Toronto for an unforgettable experience. In 2003 the historical landmark was purchased by Dynamic Hospitality & Entertainment Group, who transformed it into a special events venue and revived the it's grand style.
I don't even know where to start. Every single aspect of my wedding day was perfect.
We hired a lot of their preferred vendors and they all rocked it without any issues!! (and if there was an issue, they fixed it before I even noticed lol)
It was such a pleasure working with Sarah, Rebecca and the rest of the staff who made our vision a reality. Not a detail was missed. The guests raved about the food for days after, and because it's such a unique venue with unique twists (curtain opening, movies playing, large mezzanine) it was something they have never seen before!
Thank you so much to all of the wonderful staff who worked their butts off to make my wedding day one of the happiest moments of my life

They are too busy to respond to emails. Its best to call or meet in person to save the date.
If you are looking for a classy, fun and unique night this is the venue for you! However take into account that you need to have the $5000 dollar deposit to secure a date and dates run out quickly. So my suggestion when you see the venues is that you are ready with the minimum 5000 at a reach to make the deposit right before the dates disapear. Also there are winter promotions that are worth taking into account if you are willing to pick any available date!

Unique venue and great service
We shopped around at quite a few venues and received quotes that matched or went over that of the Eglinton Grand. The EG gave a lot more than others for the same price, and offers a space that is unique compared to other event spaces. All the staff were really nice and very helpful and were able to answer all of our questions. I would recommend this venue to anyone.

A Magical Evening
My husband and I could not be happier with our wedding at the Eglinton Grand! We were totally impressed with the process from start to finish. Rebecca was amazing to work with over the course of planning our big day. She was extremely communicative, detail oriented, helpful and friendly. It was a pleasure to work with her! Joseph ensured that the wedding ran smoothly that evening with respect to the ceremony, vendors, meals, and guests. He even went around the room to check on all the tables to ensure the guests were happy with their food and having a good time. Our guests were very impressed with the professionalism of the staff that evening, the delicious food, as well the beauty of the venue. The Eglinton Grand is truly a gorgeous space and made our wedding come to life. It was such a magical night, and we are so grateful to the Eglinton Grand for helping us make this evening so special!

Amazing venue!!
My fiancé (now husband) and I were looking for a venue that was unique. We fell in love with the Eglinton Grand.
Staff were extremely accommodating, patient and made the process for getting married seamless. Honestly, not only did we get the venue we dreamt of, but the Grand helps you all along the way.
Their preferred vendors assisted in making the day perfect. It was like having a wedding planner without having to pay for one.
The wedding was elegant and classy. Staff ensured we had everything we needed. They really listened to our needs.
Thank you so much to everyone at the Eglinton Grand. You made our wedding perfect!!!!
