The Aberdeen Pavilion, located in Ottawa's Lansdowne Park, is a historic exhibition hall built in 1898, known for its Victorian architecture. Designated as a National Historic Site of Canada in 1983, it has served various purposes, including as a venue for agricultural shows and military gatherings. The pavilion is notable for being one of the oldest surviving indoor ice hockey venues, where the Stanley Cup was contested in 1904. Visitors can enjoy special events, a winter farmer's market, and the CityFolk Festival held annually. The pavilion is accessible for visitors of all abilities. Admission to events may vary, so checking ahead is recommended for specific hours and fees.
