CBC Museum, Broadcasting heritage museum in downtown Toronto, Canada
The CBC Museum is a broadcasting heritage museum in downtown Toronto that showcases the evolution of Canadian radio and television. The collections include artifacts, photographs, audio recordings, and video material that document different eras and types of productions.
A collection started in the CBC promotion department during the 1960s and became an independent museum in 1994. The museum was established within the Canadian Broadcasting Centre, serving as an archive for the nation's broadcasting history.
The space displays memorabilia from Canadian television productions and radio broadcasts that shaped the nation's media landscape. Walking through, you get a sense of how these programs became part of everyday life for Canadians across different generations.
The museum is located within the Canadian Broadcasting Centre near the waterfront area and is accessible by wheelchair. Plan to spend a reasonable amount of time walking through the galleries at your own pace without feeling rushed.
Next to the museum sits a theater with about 40 seats designed to look like a large wooden television set. Selected CBC television shows are presented in this distinctive space, adding an interactive element to the visit.
