Welcome, globe-trotters and adventure-seekers, to Things to Do in Toronto—your daily passport to the city’s best shenanigans! It’s Thursday, November 20, 2025, and whether you’re ready to skate, stretch, celebrate, or snack, Toronto is buzzing with energy today. Picture this: a classic Canadian fall—crisp, cool air perfect for layering up in your flashiest Maple Leaf gear. The city’s humming with holiday anticipation, twinkling lights, music, and the whiff of mulled cider wafting through the chill.

Let’s kick things off with your event lineup! At 7 p.m., fans are flocking to Scotiabank Arena as the Toronto Maple Leafs defend home ice against the Columbus Blue Jackets. Even if you’re not into slap shots, the buzz around game night at local bars is contagious—jerseys everywhere and plenty of “Go Leafs Go” banter. Over at Roy Thomson Hall, Romeo and Juliet get a symphonic spin as the Toronto Symphony Orchestra fills the stage with musical drama at 7:30 p.m.—music lovers, grab those last-minute tickets and prepare for goosebumps. For those craving art, Harbourfront Centre’s free exhibitions are lighting up the lakeside all day, ranging from bold installations to interactive displays. Swing by early—this creative oasis is perfect for a recharge between events.

Holiday spirit is in overdrive at the St. Lawrence Market’s Winter Market, with vendors serving up comfort eats, spiked hot drinks, and handcrafted gifts. Stroll Market Street inhaling s’mores or snag a photo with Santa (and trust me, he’s never looked cozier). Meanwhile, if indie grooves and nightlife call your name, sneak over to The Raven Gallery for Portfolio Sessions: House Night—a fusion of DJ sets and art just steps from Dundas Square, running until midnight.

In freshest city news, Toronto’s foodie scene just keeps sizzling—multiple insiders are already raving about buzzy new bistros opening up in the Ossington and Queen West neighbourhoods this week, serving everything from Korean corndogs to plant-based comfort food. Transit update: subway service has resumed on the Yonge-University Line after earlier delays, and the city says express streetcars are running on schedule. If you commute, give yourself a little extra time; the roads around the Distillery Historic District are extra jammed thanks to winter festivities.

If you’re plotting your must-do list, don’t skip Kensington Market’s vintage shops, a spin through the Distillery Winter Village for picture-perfect lights, and an impromptu street food crawl on Queen West. Secret gem: the Indigenous Artisan Marketplace is popping up for just four days, full of stunning crafts, beadwork, and sweetgrass everything—not to be missed if you want something truly Toronto.

Feeling bold? Here’s your city fact of the day: Toronto hosts the world’s largest underground shopping complex—The PATH. This subterranean maze is a whopping 30 kilometers long. Pro tip: escape the cold, hunt for hidden bakeries, and watch seasoned locals navigate it like Olympic sprinters.

Tomorrow promises even more fun—get ready for Winterfest at Harbourfront Centre, kicking off with lights, music, and enough local eats to keep you fueled all weekend. Tune in for your next adventure, because there’s always something outrageously awesome happening just around the 6ix!
