Itinerary:

Don't live life on the sidelines. Join us as we march in the 20th annual Kensington Market Festival of Lights.

Join honourary parade leader Olivia Chow and a cavalcade of costumed characters, giant puppets, stiltwalkers and firebreathers, for a luminescent lantern-lit carnival parade in Toronto's legendary Kensington Market.

Journey... through narrow streets, encounter surprise theatrics on rooftops and in storefronts - revel in a fiery solstice send-off.

Bang a drum or a pot or pan, ring a bell, sing a song, carry a lantern, wear a costume.

Meet in front of the Fire Station at 132 Bellevue Ave just South of College. Then we'll head to the parade start point together.

Look for me holding a TOC sign and wearing a funny costume. Come celebrate the return of light! The Festival is participatory.
