Therme Canada | Ontario Place - Public Engagement Survey

Fun for everyone is coming back to Ontario Place!

Therme Group operates destination wellbeing resorts worldwide and we are proud to be one of the organizations helping to revitalize this waterfront landmark.

At its core, Therme Group is about the idea that people from all walks of life can gather together, immersed in water, to feel renewed, reconnected and reunited. Our future location at Ontario Place will be a family-friendly place to go for fun, relaxation, and wellbeing, with indoor and outdoor pools, waterslides and a wave pool, natural spaces to relax, physical rehab services, delicious food, and botanical gardens.

We want your input to help shape our plans.

This survey has two parts: we want to get your thoughts on activities and recreation you might enjoy, but there’s also the opportunity to give us more details about public spaces.

Thanks for your participation in this important process. Your feedback will be an important component of making Ontario Place an all-season destination.
