Canada's Sports Hall of Fame, Sports hall of fame and museum at Canada Olympic Park, Calgary, Canada
Canada's Sports Hall of Fame is a museum facility in Calgary dedicated to the history of Canadian sports. The building houses twelve themed galleries with objects, media, and interactive stations that showcase achievement stories from various sports.
The museum was founded in 1955 in Toronto and relocated several times before settling in Calgary in 2011. This move westward marked a fresh start and connected the facility with the location of a former Olympic stadium.
The museum honors athletes across many sports and shows how their achievements shaped Canadian identity. Visitors can discover personal items and stories that reveal the dedication and passion these athletes brought to their disciplines.
The galleries are organized by sports and themes, making it easy for visitors to follow their interests. The building is located within Canada Olympic Park, where other attractions and facilities are also accessible.
During the pandemic, the institution quickly built a digital museum and moved its physical collections elsewhere. This adaptation allowed many people to maintain access to the content even when the building was closed.
