Reviews of Moonbeam UFO Monument (Tourist Attraction)

Ciaran McIlwraith

Great photo op in Moonbeam, Ontario!

Nice monument on the side of the highway, by visitor info building

Erika Miknevicius

Cute roadside attraction! They have a gift shop featuring t-shirts, sweaters, hats, tattoos, toys, stuffed aliens, pins, keychains, and postcards. The post cards are really cool but pretty expensive at $5 each. I send a lot of postcards weekly and would have bought 20-50 easily if they would have been $0.50-$1. The staff is really friendly and knowledgeable about local tourism. Visit at night for a light up flying saucer.

Unique monument in a great town. Easily visible from the main street, it make a great background for photography. The nearby visitor's centre tells of Moonbeam's history and the reason for the UFO monument. We camped at nearby Rene Brunelle Provincial Park in the summer of 2018.

The campground near here has a boil water advisory but if you stop at the tourism center they have potable water available for you and it's less than 10 min drive from the park.

Who knew Canada was developping the space program with a COOP program from outerspace.

(Translated) It is not to leave the most interesting, but the road is so long that it is good to stop there (Original) Ce n'est pas la quitter la plus intéressante, mais le chemin est tellement long que c'est bien d'y si arrêté

Cute little Alien, can you find him? The christmas lighting created a nice effect.

Chris Hicks

Cool spot and very helpful info centre lady!

Genevieve Brunet

Great little tourist stop on highway 11. Easily accessible, clean washroom, free WiFi, tourism information for surrounding areas. The UFO is great for pictures and there is a cute Martian inside the kiosk for pictures. There are also items for purchase like Squishies, soccer balls, hats, t-shirts... You can check out fossils that were found at a nearby ski hill. You can also load up the fresh drinking water bottles or check out the geocache if you can find it. Parking is ample but not recommended for large trailers. Kids really liked running around. Staff was friendly and informed about local events and attractions.

What a fabulous time! Only wish we came early enough to visit the visit center! Next time for sure! "There's Moonbeam, Ontari-ari-o. There are places I've never been and always wanted to go" The Tragically Hip

This is absolutely one of the best things I've ever seen. I was on my way home from camping and had to stop and see this!! If you're driving through here, make sure you stop!!!

I would never have thought I would find a UFO monument in Northern Ontario! Very cool! Even for winter.

Unique icon to a small northern village ????

Haley Swanson

Most small Ontario towns have a big statue of what makes the town special and moonbeam is no different. Although the UFO with little alien faces pearing out is unlike anything I've seen before. It is very unique and quirky. There is a tourist stop in the building with alien themed souvenirs and the people inside are very helpful. There are maps for the area nearby so if you are travelling and need help this is a perfect place to stop and get a cute travel photo at the same time.

(Translated) It's the flying saucer at Moonbeam! It's worth an extra-terrestrial stop! (Original) C'est la soucoupe volante à Moonbeam! Ça vaut la peine d'un arrêt extra-terrestre!

Monuments like this make traveling fun

Dean Hubbard

Nice little town. I am waiting for my ride back to my planet but I never get there when it is running.

pileophish

I've never been here but I see it every night, in my dreams. Ever since I was told about it, it beckons me, pulls the strings of my very soul to visit. The memories it imprints into my subconscious brain have become a warm anchor in my heart. After my astral projection meditation sessions where my spirit visits this glorious out of world craft I feel smarter, healthier, and most of all more important. I understand the meaning of life now, and women are more attracted to me. Long live Moonbeam and should you have the honor of living so close to this national beacon of glory: you... you are the lucky ones. Canada's true heroes; the watchers of space and time. Black holes.

Andrew Taylor

Nice place to stop. Free wifi

rebecca ballantyne

Love being to the visitors centre! Got my aliens and I'm on my way!

A fun stop along the northern Highway. If you brought your bike, you can bike to Renee Brunell Provincial Park and back, about 10 km one way and Back again to stretch your legs

randy alderson

Nice friendly town

Alysoun Wells

Very cute! Expected something bigger but it was a good photo op. A little run-down and could be played up more....but it could be a sign of covid-times!
