The CN Tower provides many options for entertainment. For example:

• Snap a picture on the Glass Floor
• Feel the breeze on the Outdoor SkyTerrace
• Take the special SkyPod elevator to soar another 33 storeys up for an unobstructed 360 degree bird’s eye view of the city.

Gravity-Defying Thrills

SkyPod is one of the highest observation platforms in the world with a unique and spectacular view like no other.

In 2011 the CN Tower opened the EdgeWalk – the first attraction of its kind in North America.

The world’s highest full circle hands-free walk takes place on a 1.5 metre (5 foot) ledge encircling the top of the CN Tower’s main pod. In groups of six, visitors walk around the pod while attached to an overhead rail by a secure harness.

Toronto’s most famous landmark is more than just an engineering wonder – it’s also an award-winning dining and entertainment destination. Standing at 553 metres (1,815 feet) the CN Tower held the distinction of being the tallest free-standing structure in the world. Today it is one of Toronto’s most popular attractions for tourists.
