Today is Throwback Thursday at the EX which will include the Grand Opening of the new Saskatoon EX Museum located in the old Log Cabin on the north end of the park. It will house a historical collection of artifacts from fairs-past which now finally have a permanent home and tell the story of the Saskatoon EX as it evolved in tandem with the development of the city itself.

The first 500 Affinity Cred Union members to show their member card at the gate receive $5 off admission today. Saskatoon Transit is also offering seniors 65 and older free bus rides to and from the Ex on regular routes today.

Meanwhile, the Ex opened with a record setting day for attendance. On Tuesday, 33,839 people came from the gates which is up 15 per cent from 2019.
