Hockey Hall of Fame
The Hockey Hall of Fame is an absolute must see for hockey fans visiting Toronto
Hockey, a sport that defines Canada like no other, has caught on in over 70 countries around the world. More than just a sports museum, the Hockey Hall of Fame is an exciting, immersive and hands-on celebration of the game of hockey.
With over 65,000 square feet of exhibits, the Hockey Hall of Fame offers something for everyone. You'll get to see an outstanding collection of hockey artifacts representing all levels of play from around the world. Participate in hands-on games where you'll face-off against animated, life-size versions of some of the best players of the day. Browse through themed exhibits devoted to hockey's stellar players, teams and achievements. There are also theatres, bigger-than-life statues and a replica NHL dressing room for you to check out. Last, but not least, are the NHL trophies including, best of all, hands-on access to the Stanley Cup itself, centrepiece of the Great Hall. A replica is used when the real cup is 'travelling' outside its home at the Hall.
In addition to its role as a museum of hockey history and memorabilia, the Hockey Hall of Fame has the mandate of honouring great hockey players. Players inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame are selected by a process of nomination and secret ballot by a selection committee made up of 18 persons with knowledge and expertise in various areas of the sport. Some notable inductees include Wayne Gretzky, Gordie Howe, Guy Lafleur, and Mario Lemieux.
At the end of your visit be sure to check out the extensive collection of hockey merchandise and memorabilia in the store. You can be sure of scoring some great souvenirs that you will be proud to add to your own collection.

out of 5 Awesome stop while visiting downtown Toronto! The collection of trophies is amazing, including the original Lord Stanley's Cup and a traveling version. The interactive section is great for the kids. They have a good collection of the dynasties throughout the years and the replica Canadians locker room is cool! Also, they have a nice World representation and the Mask section is a must. Also, it's in an amazing building! Great White North Stop!

I have been playing hockey since I was 4, and I always wanted to visit. My family and I were not disappointed at all! There is so much history to soak up from the sport that I would have never known if I did not visit. There are tons of memorabilia and trophies that the players have received. The glass cases of the world jerseys were cool, and all each individual cases with iconic past players was just amazing. To top it off, they have an interactive exhibit that allows you to play goalie or be a player to score. The gift shop was large and had some good choices too. The best part is getting a chance to take a picture with one of the real Stanley Cups. It's so amazing!

I came here with my partner who is more of a hockey enthusiast than I am. I am not the target audience but I will say I was impressed by the quality of the displays, the various stories and the overall dedication to having as many perspectives included as possible.
Notable was the inclusion of women and other minority groups. Although I do feel there are ways to go as a sport, there is a clear effort here and I hope to see that keep going in the future.
It was cool to see the evolution of the sport. It took us around 1.5 - 2 hours to visit and get through most things. You can get a discount by showing a presto card or go ticket. You get all day access too so if you want to take a lunch break in the adjoining mall you can.

This place is amazing!! A must visit for any hockey fan, even if you are not into hockey you must go! We did not know what to expect going in but the displays are great and very visual. We loved it and didn't want to leave. We found it neat they had beyond the NHL, international, Olympic, etc. the Lord Stanley vault is a perfect tribute. Definitely will be going back.
There were cool interactive hockey games(goalie and shooting) that are free with admission. Great for kids and adults !
