Jazz, planes and pups: What’s happening in Toronto for Labour Day weekend
While the summer holidays are coming to a close, there’s still one more long weekend for you to enjoy in the city.
Here’s everything you need to know about what’s happening across Toronto on the weekend, including on Labour Day Monday.
Weekend events
Canadian International Air Show
It’s the last weekend of the Canadian National Exhibition (CNE), and that means it’s time for the annual Canadian International Air Show.
The show, which is celebrating its 75th anniversary this year, will feature the Canadian Forces Snowbirds and the Royal Air Force aerobatics team, the Red Arrows.
You can catch the spectacle at Marilyn Bell Park on Lakeshore Boulevard W. from 12 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. on Saturday, Sunday and Monday.
BuskerFest and Bark in the Park TO
Toronto International BuskerFest is returning to Woodbine Park this weekend, featuring a wide array of street performers and raising money for Epilepsy Toronto.
The festival, running Friday to Monday, will include performances by daredevils, acrobats, musicians and magicians. There’s also a beer garden with live music and more than 30 food vendors.
This year, BuskerFest will also feature Bark in the Park TO — a dog-focused festival with activities, obstacle courses, costume contests and vendors geared toward your furry friends.
T.U. Jazz Fest
T.U. Jazz Fest, a free festival for emerging musicians, is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year at Mel Lastman Square in North York.
From Friday to Monday, the festival will feature live performances, master-classes taught by musicians and local food vendors.
