    The theatre seems to be closed due to the pandemic but they have a free exhibit about Parliament House, which is currently closed due to restorations. The staff member working there was very knowledgeable.

    Adjacent to CCOA is this almost free museum of Canadian art by Canadian Artists. Donations are welcome as the fee for admission. Accessibility could be improved by adding more elevators or ramps. The space offers quiet contemplation or with musical accompaniment when you're lucky enough to get in there when a band is playing taking advantage of good acoustics. Nice to walk around in the gallery before catching a show.

    We went to go see Anne of Green Gables the musical. It had been a while since i’ve been to a live musical! The performers were amazing and the show was spectacular! However leaving the show was really disorganized and messy as well as during breaks. Everyone was shoving each other and when I was in line to get a drink during break this family butted in front of me, but hey there’s only so much the place can do! Overall, the staff was very friendly and the show is definitely worth to see! 👏🏻👏🏻

    We keep coming back to the Center. 1st. The memories my spouse has after working 45 years ago as a Hostess for the summer and 2nd: the plays! Last night we went to see the “Tell Tale Harbour“ story whose led character/actor was “Allan Doyle” whose known more as the lead singer for the band “Great Big Sea”. This musical was great! A must see if your in town this summer(2022).

    It's a nice place to visit when you have the time. There are books that you can sit down to read, creative pieces of art on display, and downstairs has a cute little gift shop and restaurant. You can bring a romantic interest on a date there or a friend. It was quite enjoyable.

    The Play that Goes wrong..... We had a Horrible experience at this venue as a group of unruly customers sat behind us interfering with our ability to hear literally any dialogue. Usher pulled us aside and offered us hearing devices and/or a change of seats.Both options had to be administered through the box office. Having missed a substantial part of the play already we thought going to the box office at this point would cause us to miss too much of the performance. We requested a refund. The theatre manager authorized to provide a refund was not in the house and so we were told to call her or see her Monday morning (after the weekend). I called her and left a phone message and emailed her receiving no response at all! I did manage to track her down Monday morning and was told a flat "no refunds for any reason" policy was in place. And so we spent 200 dollars and received nothing for it! We are very disappointed in this policy and find it unacceptable that the theatre would be happy to take our money having no regard for customer satisfaction. If we could give this experience a zero star rating....we would!

    Saw an amazing show here in the summer (Old Stock). They were so well organized with tickets and covid protocols. We not only had an amazing musical experience in a beautiful theatre, but appreciated how comfortable and safe the entire experience was.

    be careful we recieved two tickets as a gift from our son unfortunately I was not well the day of the show so we did not attend so we decided to rebook . well to our amazement we were advised there is no rebooking no refund NOTHING ( hard to believe) we have attended many shows here in the past and with this news we have decided that we will not continue to support this establishment again ( not sure who benifits this action ) however lucky for us there is lots of alternatives in the summer in P.E.I again be careful all is not what you may expect tried to give no stars and it would not let me

    It’s by donation only. No backpacks or they safe keep it for you. Honestly a great place for a rainy day or if you just want to find a place to enjoy art and sit. It’s large and has clean bathrooms. The art pieces either make you think or give off very Pawnee Parks and Rec mural vibes. I will not post photos. Enjoy it in person.

    Decent size, but a lot of the same type of art. Needs to have more distinct themes. Also, free admission (but donations are wanted and expected). Don't bring large bags, but if you do they will keep it until you're ready to leave (backpacks, grocery bags..)

    This is such a great museum and gallery- it was free admission for us and we got to see many different pieces from the group of seven to contemporary pieces, had so much fun here. If you’re in Charlottetown you must go!

    Parks Canada usually strives to offer an experience in both languages in surrounding PEI sites. The Confederation exhibit being off the usual site due to renovations, it sadly misses the mark. We were unable to obtain any information in French from the staff working at the exhibit, when we visited in the afternoon of August 17, 2023. What was the most shocking happened while we were waiting to watch the documentary that is displayed on two different screens in the room. Each screen needs to be activated by the staff, after distributing headsets and choosing which language to play. We were the only ones having taken seats in front of a screen that had not started playing the documentary. After requesting headsets to the staff, he came back with a group of other guests. When we asked the staff to play the movie in French, expecting to see the movie based on the order of arrival, he instead asked the other guests if they understood French. Given that they didn’t, the staff asked our family to stand up and wait 10 minutes next to the other screen, that was already displaying the English version of the movie. This kind of bigotry from staff members should not be tolerated by this institution, especially not in an exhibit replicating such an important moment of our country’s history.

    Went to Dirty Dancing. Really. It was ridiculous. Watching a movie on a big screen. Could have saved lots of money and downloaded on Netflix. No actors. No dancers. A couple of singers. They should refund half the ticket. Jeanne Allen.

    I saw Anne of Green Gables in July 2022 here. I really liked the Confederation Center. It was beautiful inside and out! I had a great time.

    I watched Anne of Green Gamble here. It is a very nice performance center. The nearby parking is not expensive.

  • 5/5 A Giant P. 7 years ago on Google
    Loved the fact it was so inexpensive to get in and that they had a variety of exhibits on display. They had a good variety of local art and some unusual exhibits you won't see anywhere else

    Don’t overlook gift shop & restaurant We stop in every time we’re in town. They have one of the best most creative gift shops in PEI Also delightful restaurant that is great for meetings, business especially. My kids love to run around, this time there was a cool dream catcher exhibit. Besides the Theatre and Gallery there is a big free area to explore too.
