Visited Arcadia Earth recently and overall had a good experience!…read more The space is beautifully designed with lots of immersive, photo-worthy rooms and a strong focus on environmental awareness. I love how they combine art + technology to teach about climate change in a way that's easy for kids to understand. The VR feature and interactive elements were fun, and it's definitely a great place for families or anyone looking for something different to do in Toronto. That said, for the price (~$39), it may feel a bit short for some people, and it's more of a "go once" type of experience. Still, I appreciate the message behind it and think it's worth checking out at least once--especially with kids!

The moving animated story of Wizard of Oz projected onto all the walls was interesting and visually pleasing. You have 2 hosts, narrating and guiding the audience through the story which lasts about 30 min. Definitely a unique format to present and view a story, and I could see the little children really enjoying this. The Lite Brite show was also pretty neat as well with different themed features (dinosaurs, space, under water...etc) with interactive game components are narrated by the same hosts who was part of the Wizard of Oz earlier. May not be everyone's cup of tea, but for our groups of a pre-teen and 4 young at hearts, we had a good time.

If you're considering this venue for an event, don't…read more At a recent private event, crowd control was severely mismanaged. On site, security and event organizers confirmed Illuminarium made the call to just let people get their own items at coat check, which I've never seen before. This resulted in hundreds of guests shoving into the area and tossing their tags. Items were thrown around and confrontations broke out when people realized their coats were being taken. It was chaotic, unsafe and some, including myself, who stayed until early morning to look for their items, lost their coats and left in freezing weather conditions. Since the event, Illuminarium has focused on blaming other attendees for potential theft. They concluded they could not identify on security footage in the chaos, as expected. The issue was not about theft or coat check risk, that can happen at any event. This was clearly a logistical failure and mistakes can always happen. However, after several emails, Illuminarium has closed the issue without taking any responsibility, offering any apology or resolution of any kind. Based on their responses, I'm no longer expecting a resolution, but I hope sharing this helps others avoid a similar experience.

Admission is free on Sunday. The museum is 4 floors of well curated exhibits. Current exhibits, April 2026, include 'All about shoes' which chronicles the history of shoes, 'Rough and Ready: the history of cowboy boots' and 'André Perugla: a design legend unveiled'. While I was there, they were preparing for a new exhibit so the 'Sneakers and Artists' exhibit was closed. I was told they have new exhibits every 18 months. There is a small gift shop in the lobby. I spent approximately an hour and a half in the museum. Staff was informative and clearly passionate about the museum. I recommend a visit to The Bata Shoe Museum
