Thirty-three Canadian youth organizations joined together to realize the Youth Pavilion. 12 main exhibition cells, each with a different theme, were arranged around a central open court. Among the activity areas were a theatre, a cafe and snack bar, and a TV show area. The central court served as an open air amphiteatre. At night, one of the exhibition cells became a discotheque. Young performers and artists from around the world shared their talents at the Youth Pavilion.
