The Toronto All-Star Big Band
We are in the height of Toronto’s “festival season” with many, many events happening throughout the city this weekend. ActiveTO is still on, summer construction projects continue and there are some scheduled TTC closures to watch out for, so if you’re driving, be sure to check your route. You might want to take the car to the closest gas station today as well, as gas has dropped another 6 cents.
