A city of culture
The diversity of Toronto’s downtown core (just 20 minutes away by subway) reflects the variety of people who make Toronto what it is — a global village in miniature. Spend an afternoon enjoying one of the city’s many museums and galleries, including the Art Gallery of Ontario which was recently transformed by internationally celebrated architect Frank Gehry. Enjoy a hike or bike ride in High Park, the city’s largest park at close to 400 acres. Check out the eclectic boutiques and restaurants of the Kensington Market. There is truly something for everyone.
A city that celebrates
Toronto is a city with spirit! More than 1,000 festivals are celebrated here each year. January welcomes our award-winning WinterCity Festival, which includes free concerts, street theatre, and ice-skating at City Hall. Summers in the city bustle with activity, from the Just for Laughs comedy festival to Franco-Fête at Harbourfront centre, and so much more. Sporting events more your thing? Cheer on the Leafs at the Air Canada Centre or enjoy a lively Toronto FC soccer match at the BMO Field.
A city of opportunities
Whether you’re looking for a part-time job while you are a student, or a career after you graduate, Toronto is the place to be. As Canada’s financial centre and the provincial capital, our city’s vast network of businesses and organizations provides opportunities for unlimited success on every step of your career path. In international surveys, Toronto is consistently voted one of the best cities in which to live and work.
