Stratford Perth Museum to reveal new Bieber exhibit

A one-of-a-kind museum exhibit devoted to pop superstar Justin Bieber is getting an overhaul.

The Stratford Perth Museum's "Steps to Stardom" collection attracted over 20,000 visitors in 2018. The museum is preparing an updated collection, including several new pieces of Bieber memorabilia.

Museum General Manager John Kastner said it includes better displays for some of the items, including Bieber's minor hockey jacket. Kastner said it had to be removed last year after being "exposed" to so many people wanting to touch it or try it on.

Bieber himself has stopped by the museum several times, and his grandparents from Stratford are regular visitors.

The revamped "Justin Bieber: Steps to Stardom" exhibit will be unveiled on February 16.
