I've been coming here every year for the past few years for an annual community picnic with over a thousand guests. The grounds and facilities are spacious and always clean. The staff do a good job of maintaining the cleanliness and emptying the garbage bins frequently.
Good place to show case history of Markham. I really liked the outdoor buildings, they have special feel to them that takes you back to 1800s and early 1900snnTheres a tour at 12 pm and 3 pm for outdoor buildings on weekend. While weekdays tour time is 2 pm usuallynnThe main building exhibits keep on changing during year. So better check website before going.nnAll in all nice place to spend weekend if you want to learn about how people used to live in MarkhamnnFree parking. Entry fee in museum is not huge so well worth it.
Had my wedding ceremony here and it was so beautiful. Such a great area with history and rustic vibes. Scott was our final coordinator not rating 5 starts because we had about 4 different coordinators throughout this time which was pretty challenging but he was fantastic and so kind and accommodating. Definitely recommend for any events or to walk around and take in the views. Our day was perfect here!
The current exhibition of the museum is about Transportation and Chinese culture. There are plenty of interactive exhibits yet there are only few visitors, so you can easily experience these exhibits without needing to queue for them. Extremely suitable for families with children who likes playing with interactive exhibitions.nnThere is also an outdoor area with guided tour at 2pm, where there are many old houses. Visitors can immerse themselves with the early lifestyles of the pioneers of Markham.nnAfter all, the admission of the museum is only $7 which is not expensive when compared with other museums in Toronto. This museum is highly recommended.
Came here for the Lunar New Year Lantern Festival. It was a lot of fun. Markham Museum always has the coolest exhibits like Applefest and this one too. Don’t forget to wear proper attire as the grounds are mainly outdoor.
