Toronto's Baldwin Village is about to come alive this Saturday, July 5, as local merchants band together for an impromptu street party that promises to bring big energy to one of the city's most underrated neighbourhoods. "We want to see if there's enthusiasm to do more in the future, perhaps even close off the street eventually. Ian shared a photo of his storefront from 1970, mid-street festival, showing that Baldwin has always had music in its bones. Just show up, wander the street, and let the unexpected performances, eats, and vibes unfold. If you're looking for something fresh to do this weekend, or want to feel like you've discovered a "new" neighbourhood without leaving the city, Baldwin Village might just be your spot.
