Whisky Tasting Fundraiser

Our signature annual Whisky Tasting Fundraiser returns to the Diefenbunker this year. Descend into history and join us 75 feet underground for an evening of tasteful pairings: whisky sampling and a walk through history, with light fare and tasteful tunes to cleanse the palate. 

Savour unique flavours and a slice of the past, while contributing to our preservation of Canada’s most significant Cold War artifact and an important platform to share lessons from a critical period of recent world history. 

Date: Saturday, November 16, 2024

What cause am I supporting?

The Diefenbunker: Canada’s Cold War Museum is a once-top secret, four-storey underground bunker, now a one-of-a-kind museum and national historic site. The Diefenbunker is also Canada’s most significant Cold War artifact — it is a powerful reminder of our world on the edge of nuclear war, and tells the story of Canada’s resourcefulness, preparedness, and extraordinary efforts to safeguard our way of life in the face of a nuclear catastrophe. 

With your help, we can preserve this important window into the past and continue to share lessons for future generations to learn from our past and envision a more peaceful future. Your support through this signature event will contribute to our charity’s preservation and conservation efforts of a one-of-a-kind historic site, along with our ability to offer high-quality exhibitions and educational programs to visitors year-round.
