    events / festivals: Toronto International Film...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Toronto International Film Festival (annual - Sept.)
    A few hundred thousand film-goers attend this week long festival with hundreds of films from around the world screened. Mostly of them are the non-Hollywood, yet have high-production values comparable to Hollywood. However, the gala screenings in recent years have been Hollywood star-studded events and world premieres of big-budget films are not uncommon.

    Other festivals in the same league: Cannes, Sundance

    Harbourfront & Toronto Islands: Centre Island and the Centre...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Centre Island and the Centre Island amusement
    Toronto, like Vancouver, has a recreational island nearby. Albeit, no where as large, but a short ferry trip away (runs until 11pm).

    The Centre Island amusement park is great for young children.
