The BIG on Bloor Festival of Arts and Culture, one of Toronto’s best and most loved summer street festivals is a two-day, car-free summer street celebration of arts, culture, and small business all in the Bloordale neighbourhood (Bloor Street West from Dufferin to Landsdowne).
Residents and visitors can experience fifty original hands-on cultural projects that have been commissioned especially this event! Make something, learn something, engage and enjoy hundreds of distinct musical and theatre acts, art projects, games, poetry, architecture inventions, one-of-a-kind exhibitions and shops.
