About Varsity Centre - University Of Toronto
Welcome to Varsity Centre at the University of Toronto, a premier multi‑purpose athletic complex that brings together Varsity Stadium, Varsity Arena, and the Pavilion. Located at 299 Bloor Street West in Toronto, this venue hosts a wide range of intercollegiate and competitive events, from football and soccer to hockey and track. Whether you’re planning a night with the Varsity Blues or a major championship, we’ve got you covered with practical details on seating, parking, transit, and nearby lodging and dining options.
Across the complex, the facilities are designed for versatility: the ice rink at Varsity Arena converts to a sport court in the summer, while Varsity Stadium accommodates thousands of fans for outdoor football and track events. The site remains active and vibrant, continuing a long tradition of hosting national championships and international competitions.
Parking is available via metered street spaces and Green P lots in the Bedford Road area. For many attendees, a short walk from the St. George TTC subway station is the most convenient transit option, with the Bedford Street gates providing accessible entry for events. If you’re visiting Toronto for a game or championship, consider staying at nearby hotels like Holiday Inn Toronto Bloor Yorkville, Windsor Arms, Yorkville Royal Sonesta, Four Seasons Toronto, or Shangri‑La Toronto. We’ve highlighted affiliate partner recommendations to help you book comfortable accommodations and enjoy excellent dining in the area. Secure your seats with ease and rely on us as your trusted connection for tickets and event information.
Venue amenities and nearby services are designed to help you plan efficiently: reliable access to seating areas, clear signage for skating and multi‑purpose events, and convenient options for food and drink in the surrounding Yorkville and The Annex neighborhoods. For the best experience, check event timing, transit advisories, and any accessibility information ahead of your visit.
