There are no tours on concert days. On Leafs or Raptors home game days, tours run, but the dressing rooms are closed.

The arena lists no fixed tour times. Pick your date first, then check that nothing is on that day.

Getting to Scotiabank Arena at 40 Bay Street

Arrive at least 15 minutes before your tour starts. The arena's own page names two different gates, so check your ticket for the gate.

Minors must come with an adult. Outside food and drinks are not allowed, except water bottles.
