Toronto's heating up—and not just because you left your vape pen on the dashboard again. Whether you're sparking up a hash joint or just riding the contact high of summer energy, these festivals are here to elevate your vibe. Mark your calendar, roll something up, and let’s get into it:

Do West Fest (June 6–8)

Dundas West transforms into a street sesh that spans 16 blocks. Music, food, art, and pop-up magic around every corner. Great for aimless wandering and spontaneous dancing. Even better with a pocket pre-roll.

Where? Dundas St. W. from Ossington to Lansdowne.

Grilled Cheese Challenge (June 7)

Cheese dreams, meet munchie reality. Lakeshore Village is hosting a gooey, golden showdown of the city’s finest grilled cheese. There’s beer, tunes, and enough snack energy to justify that extra edible. 

Where? Lakeshore Blvd. W. (Islington to Second St.) 11 AM – 8 PM

Pride Toronto (June 26–29)

All June, Toronto’s a rainbow, and the last weekend is the main event. Come for the Parade, stay for the love, art, and rooftop afterparties. It’s bold, it’s loud, and it's perfect for rolling deep with your chosen fam.

Parade: Bloor & Church to Yonge & Dundas, June 29 at 2 PM

Toronto Fringe Festival (July 2–13)

Unpredictable theatre from creatives doing it their own weird way. Comedy, drama, and some shows you’ll try to explain later but can’t. Bonus: outdoor performances are ideal for a pre-show toke.

Where? Venues across the city. Prices vary.

Beaches Jazz Festival (July 4–27)

Month-long groove session in the east end. Grab your speaker and head to Woodbine Park—or just follow the bass down Queen East. Soul, funk, jazz, and the occasional beach nap between sets.

Where? Woodbine Park & Queen St. East.
