Why 777
The Queensway.
Viva Studios is in South Etobicoke, off the Gardiner.
Located on The Queensway in South Etobicoke, the studio sits right off the Gardiner Expressway. Crews coming from Mississauga, Oakville, or anywhere along the QEW can get here in minutes. Downtown Toronto is a 15-minute drive and Pearson (YYZ) is 20 minutes.
Catering, equipment suppliers, and prop houses are nearby, with restaurants within walking distance for crew meals and hotels for multi-day productions.
The building itself was designed for this kind of work. Dock-level loading at the rear means you pull your truck up, open the door, and you're on the stage. Free parking for the entire crew right at the studio door. A full day is $1,200 for 12 hours.
