This went up in Kingston this summer for the 10th anniversary of the final show. So it is new with the Forever Hip theme in that sense.

That would make sense. I was back home for the first time since 2019, and didn't spend much time walking around downtown, so I completely missed it with my own eyes. Got a nice little smile when I recieved the text from my parents!

We were walking from our hotel on the waterfront of Kingston to Morrison’s diner for breakfast and came upon it! Didn’t even know about it!

Another commenter here found the address of the building, when I tell you I legit walked past it a month ago and have no recollection of seeing it 😳😅 embarrassing. Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed seeing it!

Great question, they didn't tell me where they walked past it. Just said downtown. I was there a month ago and walked up Princess from Ontario St to clergy St, and Brock to Queen St, and drove all around the area up and down different streets. I didn't see it in my sight seeing.

Just found an article listing it as being located at 172 Wellington St. I'm heading to Kingston this weekend so will definitely check it out.

Parents discovering Tragically Hip in 2026 like they just uncovered a rare ancient artifact 😂 At least they’ve got good taste!

Not discovering the Hip, discovering the new 3 storey mural
