A very interesting place. Lots of instruments to try, such as a xylophone, ukulele, banging sticks, and pianos. They really focus on Canadian music and artists so prepare for a lot of that. I feel like it could've been a bit more interactive, but still had fun. I went during the $10 Tuesday date night admission so me and SO got our money's worth, but probably won't return until there are more exhibits or something because we were more interested in the instruments than artists.
Such a great experience! It was awesome to see how big Canada's music scene really is. Unfortunately, we didn't get to all the floors but I would happily go back! You can also get some really great views of downtown and all the development that's going on.
Incredible experience here. This place will instill in you a great appreciation of Canadian musicianship. You will be surprised at how many of your favorite artists are Canadian! Great instrument collections, and a set for the public to try out. Nice coffee shop and gift shop that features local vendors.The building is an architectural masterpiece, and being inside is an all-around pleasant experience.
I finally managed to visit the National Music Centre and I have to say the space is amazing. Theyve put so much work into the building and it looks beautiful. Theres 5 floors and each one is dedicated to a different aspect of music history. From the pioneers of Canadian music to the instruments and even the production equipment used to create it. I would strongly suggest that if you havent come here to visit.
Visited this place with my best friend not too long ago. Admission fee wasn't that bad but that was because we had an advantage with the student admission fee. I love the building's layout and archeticture. It's a good place to take Instagram pictures. There was a lot of interesting instruments. They have some interactive activities/sections/booths but I also found that they have a lot of empty rooms with just stickers/paintings/posters on the wall. We still enjoyed our time in there though. I think we spent 2 hours in there.
