TORONTO – An immersive journey through the stunning story of Pink Floyd heads to Toronto this summer.
Organizers announce that following successful performances in multiple cities around the world, The Pink Floyd Exhibition: Their Mortal Remains will land at Exhibition Place’s Better Living Center on June 16, with an indefinite run throughout the season.
The 20,000 square meter exhibition promises a chronological audiovisual experience beginning in the British band’s early underground days before moving on to their monumental albums The Wall and The Dark Side of the Moon, which previously marked their 50th anniversary Anniversary celebrated this year.
On display are more than 350 artifacts and objects from Pink Floyd’s career, including handwritten lyrics, musical instruments and items from the band members’ personal collections.
There’s also a range of stunning original stage props that the band once took on tour, including a giant inflatable pig.
Ticket sales begin Friday through the Pink Floyd exhibition website.
The Pink Floyd Exhibition: Their Mortal Remains was originally created for London’s Victoria and Albert Museum in 2017 before its success last year led to a tour of other cities including Rome, Madrid, Los Angeles and Montreal.
