The Capitol Centre
The property upon which the Capitol was built was purchased in 1927 by Louis Rosenbaum, a Sturgeon Falls businessman. He began building the structure and, when he ran out of funds, he sold it to Famous Players Canadian Corporation. They opened the Capitol Theatre on June 1st, 1929. The Capitol had 1455 seats and was referred to as “a palace of splendor” with it’s elaborate Spanish lights and décor. The movie that was shown to the sold out grand opening crowd was, In Old Arizona. It was the first all-talking Fox feature movie, a western starring Edmund Lowe, Warren Baxter and Dorothy Burgess.

Capitol Centre Benefit Bash
until 10:30 PM @ Capitol Centre, 150 Main Street East, North Bay ON- Regular$95.00
Are you craving a blast from the past with Blockbuster and boy bands? Ready to hit the dance floor, singing along to all the iconic tracks from MuchDance 95 and NOW 2? Join us at the Capitol Centre Benefit Bash for a night filled with fun, laughter, and unforgettable memories!
Featuring a performance by The 99's (sister band to North Bay favourites, Dwayne Gretzky) - a team of talented musicians with a set list packed of pop, rock, and R&B favourites from the 70s through the 00s. It's as impossible to know what's coming next as it is to not shout-sing along to every word!
After you warm up those vocal cords with The 99's, join us in the WKP Kennedy Gallery for some karaoke, hosted by the amazing DJ Kyle from Sellebration Productions. Too shy to get on the mic? No problem! Dance your heart out instead at our bangin' video dance party.
This isn't just any fundraiser; it's the highlight of the year on North Bay's social calendar and all of the proceeds go towards the Capitol Centre's community engagement programs. Let's come together, celebrate the arts, and party like it's the 90's!
This is a 19+ Event.
