Casa Loma

About this venue

Casa Loma is Toronto's hilltop historic-house attraction and event venue at 1 Austin Terrace. Its entrance, paid surface parking, overflow arrangement, and heritage-building accessibility require more planning than a conventional theater.

Seats & views

Accessibility

Casa Loma’s Austin Terrace main entrance has a ramp and needs BOTH front doors open for wheelchair entry. A small STAFF-OPERATED heritage elevator serves the basement/second/third floors for guests unable to use stairs; it does not take strollers. The Queen’s Own Rifles/Pellatt rooms, Servant’s Room, tunnel and towers have access limits/stairs, so the castle is not entirely step-free. Limited free wheelchairs, main-floor accessible washrooms and two West Lot accessible parking spots are listed; East Lot allows special-needs drop-off. Confirm the specific tour/event route and chair availability at 416-923-1171.

The experience

  • Best for: A timed Casa Loma visit or ticketed evening event with the steep approach, parking plan, and heritage-building access understood before arrival
  • Watch out for: The tunnel, Scottish and Norman towers, and some stair-only areas are not accessible even though the main floor and an accessible washroom are available.
