Dream in High Park

Welcome to Dream in High Park - a stage for all of Toronto!

Dream in High Park is one of Canada’s largest and longest running outdoor professional theatre events, taking place at the picturesque High Park Amphitheatre, and welcoming over 30,000 audience members to the park each year. Dream has grown into a large-scale cultural event that runs throughout the summer: an inclusive family-friendly event that provides accessible access to art and engages the local community. 

We invite you to explore everything Dream has to offer and can't wait to see you in the park!

Tickets for Dream in High Park are general admission seating. Gates will open to ticketholders 2 hours prior to each performance. The Box Office for in-person Rush will open 30 minutes before each performance, allowing patrons to purchase Rush tickets to that night's performance, subject to availability. You may purchase in-person Rush tickets by tapping a card/phone or by cash payment. There is no minimum cash payment, but our suggested donation is $20 per person. Rush tickets are also available online starting at 12:00pm on the day of the performance, with a minimum donation of $15.

Rush tickets have the same Pay-What-You-Can pricing as always. We’ve made accessing Rush PWYC tickets more convenient by adding online availability. Those who buy their tickets online can skip the in-person Rush line, allowing more time to claim your seats and enjoy the beautiful site!

Canadian Stage is proud to uphold the tradition of Dream in High Park, and we thank you for your part in keeping the dream alive!

We are thrilled to offer backstage tours of the High Park Amphitheatre at 6:30pm prior to Tuesday evening performances of Hamlet starting July 30th. Backstage tours are only open to ticketholders of that evening's performance. Patrons wishing to attend the backstage tour must present their tickets for that evening's performance of Hamlet. Space is limited and pre-registration is required. Registration is available on the ticket purchasing page.
