Open Streets TO

Event Details

This event finished on 15 September 2019

Open Streets TO is the city’s largest free recreation program. The streets are opened to people and closed to cars. The streets become “paved parks” where people of all ages and abilities can come out and improve their health.

The program extends along Bloor Street from Christie Street to Sherbourne, and south on Yonge Street to Queen Street. In addition to these streets, parks and spaces along the route will be programmed with activities put on by members of the surrounding community.

Open Streets TO is focused on promoting physical activity and exploring our city in healthy and fun ways. There will be no outside vendors (i.e. there won’t be any food trucks and/or stalls). All purchases made by Open Streets TO participants will be made at established businesses along the route.

Highlights include:

    • family fun zone
    • exercise
    • dance workshops
    • live music performances
    • street games
    • workshop
    • art installations
    • obstacle course
    • and more
