“We have been very pleased with hosting our annual event at The Meeting House. Shirl and Dave are so easy to work with and always go that extra step to help make our day run smoothly.” Robin Grout Head of School, Junior and Intermediate Divisions Fern Hill School Oakville Campus
"The Christos team presents an audio-visual and technically sophisticated play every year, and they found no place better than the Meeting House to host them. The Meeting House's technical capacities, professional atmosphere, comfortable seating and helpful support team set it apart from any other venue out there. It is doubtless that a great turn out to our events is in part due to the Meeting House's great setting and hospitality. We highly recommend the Meeting House for any professional presentation and we intend to continue presenting there"

“Thoroughly professional facility - You are the Best!!!”
Ruth Hannigan Managing Director of Festival Theatre Arts Toronto.
"I have played theatres of every size all over Canada, the United States, and the UK. "The Meeting House" was easily one of the greatest venues we've ever performed at. And the reason behind that is because of the staff and crew. The effort that was put into making our show look and sound the best that it possibly could was unprecedented. The lighting director made our show look better than it did in some of North America's biggest and most technically advanced facilities. The venue had everything we needed, but it was the talent behind the scenes that made our show as good as it could be. I can't wait to return!"
Jim Witter
“Our organization conducts business within the Greater Toronto Area. Due to that large area, we have found that this newly renovated facility is not only located in a convenient location, but its state of the art technical capabilities are able to fit all of our training and conference needs. The friendly Support Staff of the Meeting House are professional and resourceful – they are wonderful to deal with and go out of their way to ensure that everything runs effortlessly. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Meeting House to anyone.”
“Working with The Meeting House on Why Everything Must Change 2008 was a pleasure from start to finish. They are the consummate professionals when it comes to event planning and management and we believe that the success of our conference was in large part due to their commitment to us and to how well they understood our needs. They delivered on the day of our event and followed through on every possible level. The Meeting House does indeed understand what it means to go the extra mile. I trust we will be working with them for many years to come. “

Heart Lake Secondary School has used The Meeting House facility as its venue for Commencement for the past two years. I cannot think of any other facility that is better suited to a graduation. There is room for everyone to mingle, enjoy a beverage, and get pictures taken. We use the entire facility to include the auditorium where the graduating students are placed in alpha order for the processional. The theatre seats over 1000 people in theatre style seating; there were enough seats to accommodate our large graduating class and their guests. The live taping of the ceremony allows everyone to see the proceedings and each graduating student up close. The staff at the Meeting House is very helpful and accommodating. They are friendly, listen to the needs of the client, and enjoy what they do. The Meeting House provides the service and physical building for relatively the same cost as the rental of one hall in a convention centre.
I am happy to report that I have only received positive reports about our Commencement ceremonies at The Meeting House. The staff at Heart Lake Secondary School is so pleased with this venue that we have already booked it for the next school year. We plan on using their facility and services for our Commencement ceremonies for years to come or as long as we are able to do so.

Working with the staff of The Meeting House is an absolute pleasure. Putting on a huge show takes a small army of people; making the show successful takes the talents of Shirley and the Meeting House team. Without question, Shirl was instrumental in the smooth running of our concerts. The sound and lighting techs are always a laugh to work with, and they go above and beyond the call of duty to accommodate our requests - even last minute. And as for the venue itself, our guests couldn't stop talking about the theatre, using words like "professional", "impressive", "incredible sight lines". Many thanks Shirl...we'll be back again next year and for many years to come. When you find something that works, you don't look back!
