NEW! Onsite pop-ups with musicians, neighbourhood and history experts, including the North York Historical Society and Lost Rivers. Wristband holders will also receive dining discounts at a local restaurant and plant retailer.

This outdoor event can be enjoyed solo or with family and friends. Stroll along the tree-lined streets while skipping in and out of gardens. Come early or linger after the tour to shop or dine at one of the local restaurants in the area.
