Centrepointe Theatre

Centrepointe Theatre is a 966-seat publicly owned performance hall located in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It opened on May 3, 1988.

The theatre is located in Ben Franklin Place, which served as the city hall of Nepean, Ontario until that city was amalgamated with Ottawa in 2001. Located near Baseline Station and the Queensway (Highway 417), it is easily accessible to the residents of the city and is at the geographical centre of the City of Ottawa.
