The Crest - Lakeshore Amphitheatre


→ ARCH 173



About
Burlington’s lakeshore is a vibrant and diverse urban community. In close proximity to cultural centres such as the Burlington Performing Arts Centre and the Art Gallery of Burlington, and located in between downtown Burlington and Lake Ontario, this park serves as a cultural and recreational hub for the city. As the site of Ontario’s largest free music festival, the Sound of Music Festival, Lakeshore Amphitheatre can accommodate the sizable audience expected to gather. Its form resembles a wave bridging the lake and city, and the central mast is not only a structural element but also a landmark in a growing urban environment. With distinct curved openings that frame views to the lake, this proposed performance space creates a beautiful setting for entertainment and connection.
