The Civic Trust Award in the United Kingdom has named the theatre as a Regional Finalist.

The new Tom Patterson Theatre at the famed Stratford Festival is receiving international acclaim even before the building opens for the 2022 Festival season. 

The project designed by University of Waterloo alumni Siamak Hariri, co-founder of Hariri Pontarini Architects, won Best of the Best Award in cultural architecture from the Architecture MasterPrize in Los Angeles, November 2021. 

The theatre is the only project in Canada to make the shortlist of this global competition that celebrates design excellence in the built environment (https://www.civictrustawards.org.uk/).
