Episode Details

Meridian Theatres at Centrepointe is facing a long shutdown after devastating Canada Day storms caused major water damage to the main stage, orchestra pit, seating, studio theatre, lobby, flooring, and even a grand piano. With specialized spaces and equipment, assessing the full extent of the damage is taking time—and no reopening timeline has been set. All shows, events, and rentals through the end of the year are canceled; staff are offering refunds and helping artists find alternative venues like Shenkman Arts Centre. Ticket holders will receive refunds soon, and performances scheduled beyond the new year will be reassessed later this fall. For Ottawa’s arts community, this is a painful blow—but the team is working tirelessly to restore one of the city’s most vital cultural hubs.
