The Saskatoon Centennial Auditorium was opened April 1, 1968 and was designed by Kerr Cullingworth Riches Associates. Its first performance was a performance of Orff's Carmina Burana by the Saskatoon Symphony Orchestra
It was named in honour of Canada's recently completed centennial celebrations. It was part of a major redevelopment of Saskatoon's downtown following the closure of its CNR station; the project also saw the construction of the Midtown Plaza mall. In 2006 the centre underwent major renovation with funding from TCU Financial Group, giving it naming rights for 10 years as TCU Place Arts & Convention Centre. In 2013, TCU renewed the naming rights until 2026.
The Sid Buckwold Theatre, located within TCU Place is a 2,003 seat performing arts theatre. The theatre is home to the Saskatoon Symphony Orchestra and aside from hosting major arts performances and conventions, the venue alternates with Regina's Conexus Arts Centre as host of the Telemiracle telethons.
