Yes indeed, it opened in the middle of the Centennial celebrations for the town of Hamilton, which actually didn’t happen until 1946. They just felt like having a celebration to celebrate the city in August of 1913, after the centenary of the War of 1812 the year before.

The 2000 seats on all of the ads, was a huge selling point, although the actual seating capacity was closer to 1800.

The building was designed by Lambert and son of Rochester New York.
