The Formula 1 Exhibition made the announcement on Wednesday, March 20th writing, “The all-new F1 Exhibition opens May 3rd, 2024 and will run until early summer at the Lighthouse ArtSpace Toronto, one of the city’s leading exhibition locations.”

The announcement mentions guests can expect iconic F1 race cars from different eras, racing simulators and never-seen-before artifacts spanning six specially designed rooms in an over 20,000 sq. ft space.

The rooms and designs are in “collaboration with award-winning curators, artists and filmmakers, and offers unique insights into the extraordinary world of Formula 1.”

According to the Formula 1 Exhibition, The first room is called Once Upon A Time In Formula 1, which features a mix of previously-unseen photography, film and artifacts which transports fans through some of the sport’s most iconic and defining moments.

Design Lab takes visitors into the heart of a Formula 1 factory for a rare glimpse into how F1 teams design and manufacture each season’s new car.

Drivers & Duels is another room which celebrates the most iconic drivers and legendary races since Formula 1 began in 1950.

Fallen Heroes shines a light on the many drivers throughout Formula 1’s history who tragically sacrificed their lives in pursuit of success while the following gallery, Survival, covers Romain Grosjean’s crash in Bahrain in 2020 and his extraordinary escape from the ensuing inferno.

The Pit Wall is the final exhibit- a cinematic and immersive experience that allows fans to relive the greatest moments in Formula 1 history like never before.

“The F1 Exhibition has proven hugely successful during its visits to Madrid and Vienna and with Canada’s history and passion towards our sport, we expect that it will be popular with new and existing fans when it opens in May in Toronto, says Emily Prazer, Chief Commercial Officer, Formula 1.
