Meridian Place is an outdoor, urban amphitheatre located in the heart of Barrie, Ontario next to Memorial Square and north of Heritage Park. It's entirely concrete with various features built for seating for an amphitheatre.[1]

The naming rights for 25 years were sold to Meridian Credit Union.[2][3] A rainbow crosswalk has been installed crossing Simcoe Street between Meridian Place and Heritage Park.[4][5]
