Show off your pride and love for the 6ix by coming out to the bash this winter. Celebrate Toronto's free anniversary party will have delicious food and tons of fun activities to participate in.
Celebrate Toronto is hosting another event this winter for they city's anniversary.
The festival will run from March 7, 2020 to March 8, 2020, and will feature all sorts of awesome things to do.
You can glide across the glassy skating rink in Nathan Phillips Square, with skates available for rent on site. There will also be a snack bar to take a break at.
DJ Caff will be bringing the party to the ice during the DJ Skate parties.
There will be tons of local vendors for you to shop at the Outdoor Market. The event is accepting vendors now, and you can sign up on the website if you'd like to participate.
You can also check out a cool interactive display called the Wall of Wishes, where you can add your personal message about the city.

Whether it's a thank you note, a special memory, or a dream, you can add it to the wall along with so many other Torontonians.
Past events also had giant ice sculptures for you to snap pictures with.
In 2019, the festival introduced a Licensed Beer Garden to the fun, and hopefully, this boozy spot will be returning this year.
