About Burton Cummings Theatre
The Burton Cummings Theatre is a historic performing-arts venue in downtown Winnipeg, proudly standing as a National Historic Site since 1991. Originally known as Walker Theatre and later the Odeon cinema, it was reinstated as a live venue in 1991 and renamed in 2002 to honor Canadian music legend Burton Cummings. With a rich history spanning vaudeville, cinema, and live performances, this 1,600-seat-plus venue continues to host a diverse lineup of concerts, plays, and events in the heart of the Exchange District.
Whether you’re planning a night of music, theatre, or community performances, we’ve got you covered with practical details on seating, parking, transit, and nearby hotel options to make your visit smooth and enjoyable.
Seating at the Burton Cummings Theatre includes a Main Floor, Second Balcony, and Third Balcony. Note that balcony access is stairs-only with no elevator to the balconies. Plan accordingly when selecting your seats. The venue is served by Winnipeg Transit and sits steps away from downtown amenities, with convenient parking partnerships and easy access to over 1,700 stalls nearby through Platinum Parking. For visitors driving in, ParkMobile or ParkWhiz can secure parking in advance. After the show, you’ll find a range of lodging and dining options in walking distance, including Marlborough Hotel, Alt Hotel Winnipeg, Radisson Winnipeg Downtown, and The Fairmont Winnipeg.
