Gardiner Museum
Overlooking the verdant Queen’s Park and the iconic Royal Ontario Museum, the Gardiner Museum emerges as an exquisite venue for an array of events including weddings, showers, corporate gatherings, film shoots, and photoshoots. Its Terrace Room, a beacon of minimalist design with expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, offers a versatile space for up to 140 guests for seated events or lectures, and can host up to 250 guests for a vibrant standing cocktail reception. Additionally, the museum’s lobby and Gardiner Plaza, known for their pristine white walls and limestone floors set amidst a terraced garden, provide idyllic settings for ceremonies and pre-dinner cocktails, enhancing the event experience with a blend of elegance and natural beauty.
For those seeking a grander scale, the museum’s Exhibition Hall is available from June through September and can be combined with the Terrace Room to create a sprawling event space of nearly 5,000 square feet. This combination allows for dining or lecture-style events for 250 guests and can accommodate over 300 for a standing reception. The Main Floor Lobby and the Front Plaza further extend the venue’s flexibility, offering additional options for expanding event capacity or enjoying outdoor cocktails in Toronto’s mild weather. The Gardiner Museum, with its unique spaces and stunning views, stands out as a premier choice for hosting memorable events in the heart of Toronto.
