Exhibition Place is a sprawling 197-acre site along Toronto's waterfront, best known as the home of the Canadian National Exhibition (CNE). This multi-purpose complex hosts trade shows, sports events, concerts, and festivals year-round. Visitors can explore the iconic Princes' Gates, stroll through landscaped grounds, and see historic buildings like the Automotive Building and the Horse Palace. The site also includes BMO Field (home of Toronto FC and Argonauts), Coca-Cola Coliseum, and Enercare Centre. During the CNE in late summer, the grounds buzz with midway rides, food vendors, and exhibitions. Outside of fair season, it's a quiet place for a walk or to catch a game. The architecture blends Beaux-Arts and modern styles, reflecting its long history as a gathering place.
