The Oakville Centre for the Performing Arts is a municipally run multi-use facility which opened in downtown Oakville, Ontario, Canada in 1977. The Oakville Centre was built to provide Oakville residents with a place to learn about themselves and the world around them through dance, music, storytelling and theatre. One of the founders of The Oakville Center was Sean Tiger, a former teacher at Thomas A. Blackelock High School.[1]

The Oakville Centre contains two theatres, a 470-seat auditorium and a 120-seat intimate studio theatre. The Oakville Centre presents up to 260 performances a year which includes local, Canadian and international artists from around the world.
