SCOTIABANK ARENA
TORONTO, ONTARIO

Scotiabank Arena began a multi-year renovation of Scotiabank Arena in 2022 and engaged with Sports & The Arts to develop a robust art collection at the Arena. Phase one, unveiled in 2023, is a captivating showcase of diverse and dynamic works that enrich the cultural ambiance of this iconic sports and entertainment venue. As visitors traverse the arena’s corridors, they are greeted by an array of contemporary and traditional artworks, reflecting the vibrancy of Toronto’s artistic scene. Sports & The Arts commissioned 76 original artworks and over 90 pieces of custom photography for this phase.
Subsequent phases of the project, completed in 2024 and 2025, expanded the Collection to new locations with a mix of commissioned artworks, reproductions, and custom photography. The final phase, scheduled for 2026, will extend the art into several public-facing spaces, bringing the experience to an even wider audience.

The suite level corridor, visible via a public accessway, brings the art collection more visibility. A goal of our team is to create the widest access to the art as possible.

Original artwork celebrates Dr. James Naismith, the Canadian inventor of basketball, and deepens viewer engagement by connecting the team, region, and sport through shared history.




We create immersive environments that surrounds visitors with bold photography and interesting artworks.
