Among the buildings included are government offices,[1] museums,[2] radio stations,[3] places of worship,[4] embassies,[5] and historical landmarks.[6] It is the second-oldest Doors Open event in North America;[7] after Doors Open Toronto.[8]

Admission is free of charge. Doors Open Ottawa has recorded nearly 850,000 visits since it began in 2002.[9]

More than 140 buildings took part in the 2018 event[10] and over 140 buildings were expected to take part in 2019.[11]

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic in Ottawa, Doors Open Ottawa 2020 was cancelled,[12] and the 2021 event was offered virtually.[13] The 2022 event was offered in a hybrid format, with some in-person and some virtual content.[14]
