    Nathan and Bruce, super knowledgeable and passionate about the history guides in the Mackenzie House.

    a wonderful place to visit! the best way to spend $8 in the city!!! the house, located in the heart of Toronto (literally steps from the Eaton Centre and Dundas Subway station) was salvaged from (planned) destruction and turned into a small museum. It belonged to a prominent figure from the Canadian history: William Lyon Mackenzie. you will learn a lot about the history during the visit. a beautiful house with antique furniture and artefacts from the era (a few of them actually belonged to the Mackenzie family), a well equipped kitchen. Super knowledgeable guides will take you back in time to Toronto of 1830s to 1850s. I totally recommend this place to visit!!!!

    If you're considering this venue for an event, don't…read more At a recent private event, crowd control was severely mismanaged. On site, security and event organizers confirmed Illuminarium made the call to just let people get their own items at coat check, which I've never seen before. This resulted in hundreds of guests shoving into the area and tossing their tags. Items were thrown around and confrontations broke out when people realized their coats were being taken. It was chaotic, unsafe and some, including myself, who stayed until early morning to look for their items, lost their coats and left in freezing weather conditions. Since the event, Illuminarium has focused on blaming other attendees for potential theft. They concluded they could not identify on security footage in the chaos, as expected. The issue was not about theft or coat check risk, that can happen at any event. This was clearly a logistical failure and mistakes can always happen. However, after several emails, Illuminarium has closed the issue without taking any responsibility, offering any apology or resolution of any kind. Based on their responses, I'm no longer expecting a resolution, but I hope sharing this helps others avoid a similar experience.
