The Capitol Centre is a not-for-profit organization providing arts and entertainment opportunities, and contributing to the development of performing and visual arts in North Bay and the region of Northeastern Ontario. It is housed in the building originally known as the Capitol Theatre.

This multi-use facility was purchased from Famous Players and then renovated to house a 1000-seat proscenium theatre and the WKP Kennedy Gallery. The Capitol Centre is the jewel in the very center of the Northeast. Patrons visit the Capitol Centre from as far away as Cochrane and Timmins to the North and Muskoka to the South. It is home to the North Bay Symphony Orchestra, the North Bay and Area Arts Council, as well as several artists who have studios on the renovated second floor. The theatre is wheelchair accessible and there are two wheelchairs available for patron use. In addition, the theatre is equipped with a Phonic Ear System and a Quiet Room for use during performances. 

The Capitol Centre has expanded its usage to community groups such as TOROS (Theatre OutReach On Stage), Dreamcoat Fantasy Theatre, Kiwanis Festival of Music and Dance, and Rotary Club Travel Series, to name a few. The community looks to the Centre staff for guidance and assistance in producing and presenting exciting community theatre and events.

The Galaxy Circle Lounge and the intimate Lobby space are sought after for meetings, lectures, presentations, weddings, and parties.
