Summer in The City: What to Do and See in Toronto This Summer 

06.02.2017 | Lifestyle

Toronto is a city that really comes into its own during the summertime. Maybe it’s thanks to the lengthy winters, or the often-rainy spring – either way, one thing is for certain: Toronto summer activities are some of the best in the country.

Whether you’re new to the city or not, you can make the most of the upcoming season with our list of things to do this summer in Toronto:

Hit the Street (Festivals)

One of the best things to do this summer in Toronto is to hit the streets and visit one of the city’s vast collection of festivals. Whether it’s BIG on Bloor, the Redpath Waterfront Festival, Taste of the Danforth, or the Beaches International Jazz Festival – there’s good food, cold drinks, and lots of activities for folks of any age.

Take A Hike 

The sheer amount of green space in the city really gets its chance to shine when the warm weather rolls around. You can head to urban trails at the Evergreen Brickworks, or just stroll down the Martin Goodman trail right beside the lakeshore. There are also parks a plenty, with Trinity Bellwoods in the west and the Corktown Common in the east. Toronto is proud of its amount of green space, and it’s easy to see why.

Share A Sip 

A rite of passage for so many Torontonians also happens to be one of the essential things to do this summer in the city: hanging out on a patio. From rooftops like the Mascot Brewery in the Entertainment District, to quaint neighbourhood haunts like Loons in Roncesvalles Village, Toronto patios come in all shapes and sizes. Enjoying drinks like cocktails, craft beer, or cold brew coffees under the sun is the perfect way to start, lengthen, or finish a day out on the town.

Cheer on the Home Team 

Hockey and basketball might be over, but some of Toronto’s best outdoor sports get started in the summer. You can score cheap seats at a Jays game, enjoy the breeze at a Toronto FC match at BMO Field, or get ready to start the Argonauts season in style with an outdoor tailgate. Toronto sports are like no other, especially when you get to enjoy them in the great outdoors!
