Our government has unveiled the final design and awarded the contract to build and maintain the new Ontario Science Centre to be completed by 2029.
This marks a major milestone in our plan to transform Ontario Place into a year-round, world-class, family-friendly destination.
The new 400,000-square-foot facility will feature a state-of-the-art main building, an integrated pod complex, interactive exhibits and a revitalized Cinesphere, with more space dedicated to programming than the previous site.
Once completed the Science Centre will be a cornerstone of the revitalized Ontario Place, which will support more than 5,700 jobs, contributing $420 million to Ontario’s GDP during construction and welcoming up to six million visitors annually.
By focusing on thoughtful planning and strong design, our government is protecting Ontario’s long-term interests by enhancing tourism, creating jobs and driving economic growth.
