Business After 5: Diefenbunker: Canada's Cold War Museum
Step into history while building your future! Join Ottawa’s business community on March 26th for a one-of-a-kind networking experience at the Diefenbunker: Canada's Cold War Museum.
Originally commissioned in 1959 by Prime Minister John Diefenbaker as part of government planning during the height of the Cold War, this bunker is an extraordinary marvel of engineering.
32,000 cubic yards of hand-poured concrete and 5,000 tons of steel were built to withstand the force of a 5-megaton nuclear bomb from a distance of 1.8 kilometers away, and featured a thorough air filtration system to keep its occupants safe from any radioactive fallout.
Fast forward to 1994 and this national historic site has been preserved to allow for generations to tour the facility, hosting events and educational field trips. This museum's latest offering? Escape rooms!
Don't miss out on your chance to see Ottawa's contribution to this piece of history.
Sponsorship opportunities available! Email sharon.diamond@ottawabot.ca for more information.
