Universal EventSpace

I recently hosted my bridal shower at Universal and cannot say enough wonderful things about the team there!My event was moved from another Peter and Paul's venue, Paramount, due to construction, and the team at Universal was so welcoming!Roberto expertly handled my account and confirmed all my details early on. I was able to meet with him immediately after my event was moved over, and he was a great help in setting up everything I needed.Stephanie was my event coordinator and she was extremely helpful, efficient, communicative and knowledgeable about my type of event and the best way to execute all the ideas I had! She was always available for a phone call and quickly resolved any issues we had. She is great at what she does and is an asset to any event planning. It was a pleasure to work with her!Elijah was very kind and accommodating the day of my event. He handled everything while the event was taking place and was available all day to answer questions. He made sure everything ran smoothly and it certainly did!The kitchen and wait staff were wonderful as well! Everyone I spoke to was so kind and I received many compliments from my guests about how efficient and well organized they were.Thank you to the entire team at Universal for making my event so special! I would definitely recommend them as a venue to anyone for any type of event. I would book with them again in a heartbeat!

Excellent space for a concert or an event, Kristal was our coordinator, she did an amazing job helping to bring our vision to life. The lights and sound with top-notch and the staff were excellent.

As a seasoned professional in the wedding industry with extensive experience working with numerous venues in the GTA, I must express my profound disappointment with Universal Event Space. I have never encountered a venue as subpar as this one.The workers at Universal Event Space displayed a shocking level of disrespect and disregard for the guests’ needs. It was disheartening to witness the managers’ rude and disrespectful behavior towards not only the guests but also vendors and workers alike. This lack of professionalism and courtesy is simply unacceptable.Furthermore, I strongly urge anyone considering Universal Event Space to think twice before investing their hard-earned money. The venue’s unprofessionalism and disorganization are evident at every turn. The bar staff and serving staff were consistently rude and displayed an unwillingness to accommodate even the simplest guest requests.To make matters worse, the workers barged into the hall while guests were still present, causing unnecessary distress and pressuring them to leave before the designated time. This kind of behavior is inexcusable and goes against the very essence of hospitality.However, the most outrageous incident occurred when our vendor’s equipment was stolen by Universal Event Space’s staff. Despite approaching them about the theft, they not only refused to accept responsibility but also shamelessly walked away with the stolen items. This level of dishonesty and lack of accountability is truly deplorable. Feel free to check the other review here where an employee stole a guest’s iPhone at another event, it seems like this is a normal occurrence at this venue.One other thing that stood out was the maintenance manager yelling at everyone in the hall because one of the doors was open(?) Somehow the guests are responsible for keeping the venue’s $47,000/Month (his words not ours) utility costs down. This was just crazy to me and shows how they are running the place.Considering the numerous issues and utter lack of professionalism experienced at Universal Event Space, I implore you to exercise extreme caution before booking this venue for your special event. The GTA is home to many reputable and professional venues that understand the significance of maintaining strong relationships within this tight-knit industry. I highly recommend exploring these alternatives to ensure a memorable and positive experience on your big day.

Attended a gala and the service was impeccable. The bar tender she knew her alcohol. The food was amazing. My definite go to place if having an event and need good food and service.

Great venue for holding corporate gatherings and parties, weddings, gala, conferences, fundraising events, etc.They have 2 bars, one at the reception and one inside the venue; both of high quality. I strongly recommend trying their Espresso Martinis.I attended a gala here and it was perfectly organized. The appetizers. Entrée and dessert were delicious and perfectly decorated.

As a guest and as a vendor, This venue is amazing! One of kind venue, amazing food and great in house AV Team.

Nice place wedding reception, well maintained, good service, neat and clean

I have nothing but positive things to say about Lola, Tia & Karen. They truly go over and beyond for my clients. I trust them to deliver nothing but perfection.Lola is super accommodating and works hard during the event to ensure that all guests are having an amazing time. She truly adds to the customer service experience. If you do your event at universal, request for Lola! You will not be disappointed.
