NOT TO BE MISSED
DID YOU KNOW | LE SAVIEZ-VOUS
Ottawa and Toronto are amazing places to visit, but there’s a lot more to experience in Canada’s most populous province than the CN Tower and Parliament Hill. For one, Ontario’s vast and varied festival scene is truly in a league of its own! What are you looking to celebrate? MUSIC Put on your dancing shoes! Top musical events across the province include Burlington’s Sound of Music Festival, the TD Ottawa Jazz Festival, Jazz Sudbury, and the one-of-a- kind Collingwood Elvis Festival. FILM TIFF — the Toronto International Film Festival — may be the biggest event of its kind in the province, but there are loads of other fantastic movie-centric celebrations to check out in Ontario. Canadian creations take centre stage during the Kingston Canadian Film Festival, while the Windsor Inter- national Film Festival features flicks from both sides of the border and beyond. Ottawa hosts the world’s largest Anima- tion Film Festival, and Cinéfest Sudbury International Film Festival has a soft spot for French-language movies. THEATRE Stratford is the Ontarian mecca for fans of the stage. The Stratford Festival hosts a massive lineup of musicals, chil- dren’s plays, pantomimes and classic pieces over the span of seven months. If you’re in the area between April and Octo-
ber, attending at least one performance is an absolute must. MULTICULTURAL DISCOVERIES Celebrate Canada’s 150th birthday by getting to know the diverse cultures that make our country so unique. London’s TD Sunfest, Markham’s Jambana One World Festival, and Belleville’s Waterfront and Ethnic Festival all have an inter- national focus, while the Fergus Scottish Festival & Highland Games and the Toronto Caribbean Festival, among others, shine the spotlight on one heritage in particular.
