Diefenbunker’s Signature Annual Fundraiser
November 22

Our signature annual fundraiser returns to the Diefenbunker again this year on Saturday, November 22, 2025. Descend into history and join us 75 feet underground for an evening of tasteful pairings: themed whisky samples and light fare to cleanse the palate.
What cause am I supporting?
A portion of your ticket for this fundraising event is a donation to the Diefenbunker: Canada’s Cold War Museum. Ticket purchasers will be issued a tax receipt after the event for this donation.
As a one-of-a-kind museum, national historic site, and independent charitable organization, the Diefenbunker is a remarkable immersive history destination, telling stories of national and international importance. The four-storey underground facility operated as the country’s central communications headquarters during the Cold War, ready at any moment in case of a nuclear attack. It is now Canada’s most significant surviving Cold War artifact, offering an important platform to spark meaningful conversations in response to our changing world.
With your help, we can preserve this important window into the past and continue to share lessons for present and future generations to strive to build a more peaceful future. Your support through our signature fundraising event will contribute to our preservation and conservation efforts, along with our ability to offer high-quality exhibitions and educational programs to visitors year-round.
