Toronto is a fantastic place to spend Christmas with your family. The entire city embraces the holiday and it shows on almost every street. If you and your family are spending Christmas is Toronto and staying in one of Mary-Am Suites great vacation rentals, then there is plenty to see and do.
Here is a list of just some of the things that your family can experience:
Christmas Lights
When it comes to Christmas lights, one of the best places to go is the Distillery District. Every year its lights never fail to impress and it is highlighted by a 40ft. Christmas tree. In addition to the Distillery District, make sure to take an evening stroll down University Avenue, which is also covered in light during the month of December.
Christmas Flower Show
Another great place to take the family is the Allan Gardens and Centennial Park Conservatory, which is hosting a Christmas flower show. They are adorned with a variety of season specific flora and beautifully designed topiaries. Best of all, the show will be up until January 6th, which means that you have the entire month to enjoy them.
A Victorian Christmas
Also going on until January 6th is “A Victorian Christmas” at the Mackenzie House on Bond St. It is like going back in time to the era of Charles Dickens, with the house decorated as it would be during the Victorian era. For the kids, there is a letters-to-Santa station for them to compose their Christmas lists explain how good (or how naughty) they were this year.
A Christmas Carol: The Musical
For an activity that requires a bit less walking, consider seeing this year’s production of A Christmas Carol: The Musical at the Rose Theatre. This is the same show that ran on Broadway for years before settling in Toronto.
