Canadians across the country are choosing Canada this summer and enjoying all that the country has to offer. As Canadians make this country their travel destination, they can enjoy free or discounted admission with the Canada Strong Pass. The Pass is about making it easier for everyone-especially youth and families-to explore Canada and celebrate what makes it extraordinary and worthy of our pride, from coast to coast to coast.
Today, the Honourable Steven Guilbeault, Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture and Minister responsible for Official Languages, announced that 86 provincial and territorial museums and galleries will be participating in the Pass. The participating institutions will offer free admission for children aged 17 and under and 50 percent off admission fees for youth aged 18 to 24.
Canadians can visit the Canada Strong Pass website for the list of participating museums and galleries.
Select provincial and territorial museums and galleries were invited to join the Canada Strong Pass initiative, with Government of Canada support helping offset admission costs. These museums are in addition to the national museums in Canada that are offering the same benefits. Now is the perfect time for Canadians to explore their rich cultural history and traditions by visiting and learning at any of these wonderful museums.
Until September 2, 2025, the Canada Strong Pass will help families save money by enjoying expanded access to Canada's nature and culture, and while supporting the tourism industry and local economies and jobs across the country.
