The Canadian National Exhibition (CNE), also known as The Ex, is one of the oldest and most significant summer exhibitions. This year, it will begin on Friday, August 16, and continue until September 2.

The CNE, which is also referred to as The Ex, is an annual event held at the Exhibition Place in Toronto. With approximately 1.5 million visitors each year, it is the largest annual exhibition in Canada and the sixth-largest in North America.

The first Canadian National Exhibition was held in 1879, primarily to promote agriculture and technology in Canada. Over time, the exhibition has grown significantly and encompassed various aspects, but agriculture and technology remain a significant part of the CNE.

Currently, the CNE is considered an annual family tradition for many people in the Greater Toronto Area and surrounding communities.

At this exhibition, you can expect a combination of shopping stalls, live entertainment, sports events, agricultural exhibitions, a large carnival with rides and games, and a variety of food options.

The ticket prices for this festival range from $22 to $44.
