What to do in Toronto

Toronto combines a skyline on Lake Ontario with year‑round sport, concerts, festivals, and big‑name attractions, so there is always something on, whatever the season.

As Canada's largest city, you would expect a wide range of entertaining options when it comes to what to do in Toronto, but what's on offer goes far beyond expectation.

High demand for marquee games, arena shows, and must‑see sights means the best tickets can go quickly, which is where SeatPick makes planning much easier.

Top Toronto sports teams

Toronto has one of Canada’s strongest sports line‑ups, with major franchises clustered around the downtown waterfront and Exhibition Place. From winter hockey and basketball to summer baseball and soccer, the calendar stays busy.

Toronto Maple Leafs and Toronto Raptors at Scotiabank Arena

Scotiabank Arena, in the heart of the Entertainment District, is home to the NHL’s Toronto Maple Leafs and the NBA’s Toronto Raptors. Opened in 1999 and regularly updated, it seats close to 20,000 for games and doubles as one of Canada’s busiest concert venues.

Toronto Blue Jays at Rogers Centre

Rogers Centre, next to the CN Tower, is a retractable‑roof stadium that hosts the Toronto Blue Jays of the MLB. Its design allows games to go ahead in most weather, and recent renovations have refreshed seating areas and fan spaces around the bowl.

Toronto FC, Argonauts, and Marlies

BMO Field at Exhibition Place is home to Toronto FC of MLS and the Canadian Football League’s Toronto Argonauts, offering open‑air matches with views towards the lake and skyline. Nearby Coca‑Cola Coliseum hosts the AHL’s Toronto Marlies, giving hockey fans another option in a more compact arena.

Top Toronto music venues

Toronto is one of the world’s busiest concert markets, with everything from stadium shows to heritage halls and neighbourhood clubs. Whether you prefer chart pop, rock, hip‑hop, or orchestral performances, you will find a venue that fits.

Scotiabank Arena and Rogers Centre

Scotiabank Arena is Canada’s busiest large indoor concert venue by ticket sales and hosts many of the biggest tours that pass through the city. Rogers Centre can be reconfigured for even larger outdoor‑style shows, making it the go‑to for stadium‑scale productions when artists need more capacity.

Budweiser Stage and Ontario Place venues

Budweiser Stage, on the waterfront at Ontario Place, is a 16,000‑capacity outdoor amphitheatre known for its summer schedule of major acts and lake views. Nearby outdoor spaces like RBC Echo Beach and the CNE Bandshell add more seasonal options for open‑air concerts and festivals.

Massey Hall, Danforth Music Hall, and more

Historic indoor venues such as Massey Hall, Roy Thomson Hall, and Danforth Music Hall showcase everything from singer‑songwriters to orchestras and rock bands in more intimate settings. Their acoustics and character have made them favourite stops for both international tours and homegrown artists.

Top Toronto theatre tickets

Toronto’s theatre scene ranges from large downtown stages hosting touring productions to smaller venues presenting Canadian work and fringe shows. Performances span classic and contemporary plays, musicals, comedy, and festival events across the year.

Major theatres in the core host long‑running productions and big touring shows, often clustered around Yonge Street and the Entertainment District. Elsewhere in the city, companies present new writing, alternative work, and family programming, giving plenty of options if you want something beyond the biggest titles.

SeatPick lets you compare tickets for different productions and dates, check which performances still have strong availability, and choose between premium orchestra seats and more affordable balcony spots.

Toronto attractions tickets

Toronto’s attractions combine big‑ticket landmarks with neighbourhoods and waterfront spaces that reward exploration. Many top sights now use timed entry or have peak‑time queues, so advance tickets help you make better use of your stay.

Highlights include:

• CN Tower, with observation levels and glass‑floor sections offering sweeping views over the city and lake.
• Ripley’s Aquarium of Canada at the base of the tower, featuring thousands of marine animals and a long underwater tunnel.
• Casa Loma as North America's only true castle, is a unique experience for the whole family.
• Toronto Zoo is a great destination for visitors to the city, especially those with young children.
• Royal Ontario Museum and Art Gallery of Ontario, both offering major permanent collections and rotating exhibitions, great for those seeking a little culture on their visit.
• Distillery District, St. Lawrence Market, and Kensington Market, which combine heritage buildings, food, and independent shops.
• Toronto Islands, Harbourfront, and the lakeshore, where you can add boat trips, walks, and beach time to your plans.
