Sweden’s Museum of Failure is touring the world and has a stop in Calgary this summer. If you’ve ever tried and failed at an invention or have some idea in the works, seeing these 130 failed innovations from some of the biggest brands on the planet might give you incentive to keep going. In the collection, you’ll see failed products from Nintendo, Apple, Amazon and more. We’re not certain which items are included, but the Swedish curator chose everything from the Itera plastic bicycle to the tele-guide, a “pre-internet internet.” The walk-through exhibition is family-friendly. Tickets must be pre-booked.
