The Canadian National Exhibition (CNE) typically closes at midnight on most days during its run. However, on Labour Day (the last day of the event), the grounds close earlier at 9 PM, and the gates close at 5 PM with no entry or re-entry allowed after that time. Specifically for 2025, the CNE runs from August 15 to September 1, with normal daily closing time at midnight, except for Labour Day when it closes at 9 PM and gates close at 5 PM. The midways and buildings have reduced hours on Labour Day as well.
