A Sum 41 Exhibit Is Coming To Calgary's National Music Centre

The exhibit launches on March 26, ahead of the rock group's induction into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame.

The National Music Centre is telling Sum 41's story.

A new exhibit about the iconic Canadian rockers will launch at the Centre's Studio Bell in Calgary on March 26. That comes just ahead of the group's final-ever performance at the 2025 Junos, which will mark their induction into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame. The band played their final shows in January, where Billboard Canada joined them for their final digital cover shoot and interview.
