The Waterfront Fall Festival Experience
This festival transforms Toronto’s lakeside into a cultural hotspot. Queen’s Quay and the Harbourfront Center will host live music stages, pop-up art galleries, food trucks, and evening light shows. Families can enjoy kid-friendly activities during the day, while evenings feature concerts and immersive displays that light up the skyline.
