Expo 67 – A Celebration of Innovation and Culture
Relive the magic of Expo 67, one of the most remarkable World’s Fairs of the 20th century, with our free Expo 67 coloring page and the Montreal Coloring and Reading Book! Held in Montreal, Canada, from April to October 1967, Expo 67 wasn’t just an exhibition—it was a groundbreaking event that celebrated the theme “Man and His World”, showcasing cultural achievements and technological advancements from 62 nations.
Did You Know?
One of the most iconic landmarks of Expo 67 is Habitat 67, a striking example of Brutalist architecture. Designed by architect Moshe Safdie as part of his master's thesis at McGill University, this innovative housing complex was envisioned as a solution for urban living. Its unique modular design, made of stacked concrete units, has since become a global symbol of 1960s idealism and futuristic design.
A World’s Fair Like No Other
With over 50 million visitors and a record-breaking 569,500 attendees in a single day, Expo 67 remains a shining example of global unity and innovation. The event featured 5,000 films, cutting-edge pavilions, and a spectacular array of cultural showcases spread across 900 acres. Even after the fair ended, the exhibition continued under the name “Man and His World” until 1984, leaving a lasting legacy on the city.
What Remains Today
The island where Expo 67 was held is now Parc Jean-Drapeau, a serene parkland perfect for exploration. Nearby, you can visit the Biosphere, a geodesic dome that once served as the U.S. Pavilion, and enjoy views of Habitat 67, still standing as a testament to the innovative spirit of the event.
