Tips to plan your weekend

• Pick 1–2 marquee events (concerts or theatre) and fill in with gallery visits, a museum stop, and a casual stroll of a vibrant neighborhood (e.g., Queen West, Distillery District, or the Harbourfront) for balance.
• Check last-minute updates: showtimes, ticket availability, and any weather-related changes, especially for outdoor events.
• If you’re traveling with others, coordinate on major ticketed events first, then plan nearby dining or drinks to maximize time.
