Charles St GRT terminal redevelopment
I think one of the challenges of attract "big name" acts to the Region (aside from the fact that we are within the exclusion zones of Toronto, Hamilton and London) is the the Memorial Auditorium does not have the physical capability of hosting a larger show. Modern music shows require tons of equipment which cannot be supported by the current concrete surface of the rink (and possibly hung from the roof). Since I don't know what's under the concrete surface, I don't know if that is the kind of thing that can be retrofit.

There are lots of options for live musical entertainment to be hosted in the Region, just not the 60,000 seat Taylor Swift et al concerts.
