Museum Windsor – Hockey in Canada EXHIBIT

Open all break. Be sure to check museum operating hours.
Hockey is many things — shinny on a frozen pond, the sweat-soaked smell of a locker room, a winning wrist shot, a roaring crowd. But, most of all, it is an enduring national passion that brings Canadians together regardless of geography, language, gender or age. Museum Windsor is celebrating Canada’s game with a one-of-a-kind travelling exhibition from the Canadian Museum of History. Hockey, presented until May 11, 2025, looks at how the sport has influenced our lives, and what that reveals about us as a people.
