The Edwards Summer Music Series includes eight FREE outdoor concerts showcasing contemporary Canadian talent, within the beauty of the Toronto Botanical Garden, hosted by award-winning Canadian broadcaster and environmentalist Anwar Knight.
The concerts take place Thursday nights at 7 p.m. in July and August within the courtyard adjacent to the historic barn in Edwards Gardens. Concerts are held rain or shine (they move indoors in the case of extreme weather).
Arrive early for greater enjoyment. Sign up for a pre-concert guided tour of the gardens starting at 5:30 p.m. or visit our Farmers Market in the Garden (3 to 7 p.m.). The TBG Bloom Cafe, which has a patio overlooking the concert venue, will be open for light bites, sweet treats and hot food fresh from the BBQ. Drop into the Visitor Center to browse our Garden Shop for a curated selection of plants, garden goodies, and nature-inspired home decor, or Children’s Centre for FREE drop-in Family Activities (4 to 7 p.m.)
Admission to the concerts is FREE. General seating is available on a first-come basis or guests are encouraged to bring their own chair. Generously Supported by the Edwards Charitable Foundation
