There is a lot going on in Toronto this weekend, not the least of which is the St. Lawrence Market’s 205th anniversary. In addition to the usually artisans and vendors, high quality food items and unique atmosphere, on this Saturday November 7th (9am-5pm), you will also find cooking demos, old school entertainment, children’s activities, and special fare with special pricing. What a great way to start your Saturday in downtown Toronto?
After enjoying breakfast at St. Lawrence Market, why not head over to Harbourfront Centre to take part in the Day of the Dead Festival (12pm-6pm)? The Day of the Dead Festival is a traditional Mexican celebration of those who have died and are now enjoying eternal life. This celebration is filled with food, merriment, singing, dancing, alters, and decorations.
So now that your day is gone, why not check out The Second City’ Shut Up and Show Us Your Tweets to find out if Toronto is “a World class city or whiney little baby?” Student and group rates apply.
