About The Garrison

Welcome to The Garrison, a beloved intimate music venue located at 1197 Dundas Street West in Toronto. Since its revival in 2021, The Garrison has continued to host a range of indie acts, intimate showcases, and cultural events in its two-space setup: a front bar and a rear performance space. With a capacity of about 270, it’s the kind of room where you can experience a close connection with artists, hear new sounds, and discover fresh talent. We’ve got you covered with practical details on seating, parking, transit, and nearby stays and bites to help you plan a smooth night out in Toronto’s Dundas West neighborhood.

Whether you’re chasing early-career bands or established indie acts, The Garrison remains a cornerstone of Toronto’s live music scene. It’s known for hosting Wavelength Music Arts Projects’ Sunday showcases starting from its early days, and it has welcomed events from NXNE, Canadian Music Week, and JFL42. For a relaxed evening with authentic indie vibes, secure your seats or entry in advance, and consider nearby hotels like the Drake Hotel or Gladstone Hotel for convenient stays. Our goal is to make your booking easy—we’ve got you with clear seating info, transit tips, and trusted local partner recommendations to enhance your night out in Toronto.
