About The Junction Temple

The Junction Temple in Toronto, located at 151 Annette Street in the heart of the Junction neighborhood, is a vibrant live music and event venue that has quickly become a hub for performances, concerts, and community gatherings. The venue occupies a historic building originally constructed in 1909 as the West Toronto Masonic Temple, designed to resemble King Solomon's Temple, with a striking interior and distinctive architectural features. Today, it blends history with modern functionality, offering a unique setting for both artists and audiences. The Junction itself is a neighborhood rich in history, named for its railway intersections and once known as Toronto's last "dry" area, where alcohol sales were prohibited until the early 2000s. With a growing reputation for hosting sold-out shows, live music nights, and cultural events, The Junction Temple attracts diverse crowds from across the city. Its presence supports Toronto's dynamic arts scene while honoring the building's heritage, providing a one-of-a-kind space where history, architecture, and contemporary entertainment come together in an energetic and welcoming atmosphere.
