Spire Performance Hall Project

The Spire is working towards transforming the 750-seat sanctuary space into a centre for the performing arts. The goal of the current phase of the upgrade is to install a sound and lighting system. This system will lower presentation costs while expanding production capabilities and capacity for both The Spire and the Kingston community as a whole.

Theatrical sound, projections, and lighting are fundamental to the operation of any performance hall. At this time, all performance rentals must acquire and set up sound and lighting systems. A process that is expensive, laborious, and unable to provide the quality of a properly integrated and tuned system. To fully utilize the performance hall, The Spire must offer a professional-level production system that includes sound, projections, lighting, and now a streaming system. These resources will allow The Spire to charge a greater rental fee and better fund this important facility into the future, while at the same time attracting users, and adding cultural capacity to the city.
