Montreal hosted the EXPO67 showcasing innovative design, nations, and technology worldwide.

On April 28, 1967, Expo 67, the World's Fair, opened its doors in Montreal, Canada, marking a seminal event in the country's history. Themed "Man and His World," the expo attracted over 50 million visitors during its run, making it one of the most successful World's Fairs of the 20th century. Expo 67 was held during Canada's centennial year, celebrating 100 years since the Canadian Confederation of 1867, and it showcased Canada's cultural diversity and technological prowess to a global audience. The fair was spread across two man-made islands in the St. Lawrence River and a peninsula, which now forms part of Parc Jean-Drapeau. It featured 90 pavilions representing 62 nations and included standout architectural achievements such as the geodesic dome by Buckminster Fuller, which housed the U.S. pavilion, and the Habitat 67 complex, an innovative model for urban living designed by Moshe Safdie. Expo 67 not only boosted Montreal's international profile but also left a lasting legacy on the city's infrastructure and culture, instilling a sense of pride and possibility across the nation. #Expo67 #Montreal #WorldsFair #CanadianHistory #ManAndHisWorld
