Rock Symphony

If you prefer your symphony with a side of distortion, this is the show for you. On July 14th, the Casa Loma Symphony Orchestra, led by Maestro Paolo Busato, trades traditional scores for the legendary sounds of rock history. Featuring vocalists Justin Di Donato and Cleopatra Williams, this performance reimagines hits from icons like Elton John, Aerosmith, The Who, and Led Zeppelin.

Why You Should Go There is something undeniably fun about hearing the sweeping arrangements of an orchestra tackle the grit of Led Zeppelin or the anthemic energy of The Who. Set against the backdrop of Toronto's most famous castle, it's a perfect way to spend a summer night in the city.

Practical Information Doors open at 5:00 pm, and the show starts at 7:30 pm. Like other events in the Symphony in the Gardens series, seating is first-come, first-served and not guaranteed, so plan to arrive early to secure a good spot. The event is rain or shine.

Entrance is through the East Gate. Please note that this ticket is for the concert only and does not include a tour of the castle. Paid parking is available onsite for $20, or you can find additional parking at George Brown College just to the south. If you have accessibility needs, call 416-923-1171 to arrange seating.
