• Witness a citizenship ceremony followed by the opportunity to celebrate new Canadians at our New Canadian Pep Rally
• Live performances featuring Freddy Mujica and cultural groups
• A special screening of a live World Cup game and related activities

Sensory-Friendly Hour

• Smaller crowds
• Reduced sensory input
• Opportunities to enjoy select activities, exhibition spaces, and the Great Cookie Scavenger Hunt
