Toronto International BuskerFest

If you believe that busking is limited solely to a guy sitting on a street corner playing an acoustic guitar, then plan to attend Toronto BuskerFest and have your views changed. Now in its 12th year, the Scotiabank Toronto International BuskerFest features street performers from all over the world. You can expect to see acts such as silent and slapstick comedians, magicians, acrobats, aerialists, clowns, contortionists, daredevils and performers who somehow don’t quite seem to fit into any category.  During the festival, you can find all these great acts located around the St. Lawrence Market Neighbourhood, so grab a map and some spare change, and head down to this amazing festival.
