Get your comfortable walking shoes ready and mark Saturday, June 4 and Sunday, June 5 on your calendars for Doors Open Ottawa 2022. This year marks the 20th anniversary of this annual event that takes you behind the doors of so many of Ottawa’s historic and iconic buildings.
After a two-year hiatus, Doors Open Ottawa is offering many in-person building tours. Depending on your comfort level, virtual tours are also being offered online – where you can explore behind those doors, right in the comfort of your home, balcony, porch or backyard. Some buildings are offering both virtual and in-person tours.
Earnscliffe: Official residence of the British High Commissioner.
Not only is it the 20th year of Doors Open Ottawa, but it’s also Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee, celebrating her 70 years of service to the United Kingdom and the British Commonwealth. The British High Commissioner, Her Excellency Susannah Goshko, will be opening the doors to the High Commissioner’s residence – Earnscliffe – for guided tours. There will also be a Platinum Jubilee street party that provides all visitors with a taste of British food, culture and music.
This is just one of the more than 90 buildings for you to see. A full listing of buildings for virtual and in-person tours will be available online at ottawa.ca/DoorsOpen on May 26. You can use your hand device to help guide you on your day journey. A printout version will be available online.
It’s also important to note that many of the in-person tours have their own respective health measures in place. Remember, be kind and respectful.
And what’s a tour without discovering interesting tidbits of information? Ottawa Regional Society of Architects has partnered with Doors Open Ottawa to present a 20th anniversary scavenger hunt – where people can take part in the in-person tour or virtually at home to find key information for a chance to win a $50 gift certificate to a local business.
So, take advantage of this free event to see these architecturally and historically rich buildings that we often pass and ponder, “I wonder what it looks like inside.” June 4 and 5 is your chance to get the answer.
