The May long weekend is almost here! It’s the perfect time to explore a new corner of Ontario or check out the events happening province-wide. Head to the nation’s capital for the annual Tulip Festival or catch fireworks lighting up destinations across Ontario! 🌷 @cdntulipfest @southeast.ontario @todocanada DYK: The Canadian Tulip Festival honours the lasting friendship between Canada and the Netherlands, born during World War II and symbolized by tulips as a gift of peace and gratitude. 🌷

On May 10th, 23 years ago, Dynamic Earth first opened its doors to share the story of Sudbury’s geology and earth sciences. This year, our birthday feels like the start of something even bigger. 🎈💥 We’re starting a countdown to our massive expansion opening for the Summer. The heart of this new chapter is a multipurpose space designed to resemble the shape of the Sudbury Basin itself. Inside, you’ll experience the Big Impact Show, projected directly onto the rock wall (swipe to see a sneak peek!). We’re so excited to present you with an immersive look at the literal big impact that created this landscape and the legacy it left behind. We’re celebrating 23 years by going deeper than ever before. Stay tuned for more information on our grand opening date and when you can experience our brand-new show. See you soon! #DynamicEarth #DiscoverSudbury #BigImpact #NorthernOntario #SudburyBasin #ScienceNorth
