Pride is a celebration of the LGBTQ+ community focused on love, identity, inclusion, and self-expression. Throughout June, Toronto hosts events that celebrate diversity, community, and acceptance acrossthecity.
Expect parades, live performances, music, dancing, food vendors, community booths, drag shows, and thousands of people celebrating together throughout downtown Toronto. Pride weekend is one of the city’s biggest and most vibrant eventsofthesummer.
iEvery June, Canada recognizes National Indigenous History Month as a time to honour and celebrate the rich histories, cultures, traditions, and contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples.
It’s also an opportunity to learn more about Indigenous communities, voices, and experiences and to reflect on the importance of truth, reconciliation, and Indigenous leadership across Canada. Indigenous Peoples have cared for and lived on these lands since time immemorial, and their stories, knowledge, art, and traditions continue to shape communities across the country today.
