For 2006 Canada's award-winning* street festival kicks off the celebrations on the evening of July 7th, then takes the party to Yonge Street for the weekend of July 8 & 9. The world's longest street gives right of way to a FREE curb to curb celebration of tastes, talent and all that is Toronto!

In all, the festival offers fantastic free entertainment, with something for all ages and tastes. Live music fills the streetscape from multiple stages featuring roots, jazz, world, pop and children's artists. Jugglers, stilt-walkers and buskers animate the street corners, spectacular street theatre stops pedestrians in their tracks and local businesses offer sidewalk sales and activities.
