Swapsity’s Book Movie Music Eco-Swap

Get ready! Our best and biggest swap extravaganza is coming to the heart of downtown Toronto. Thousands of items will be up for swap and over 30,000 people joining in as Toronto’s largest outdoor green festival hits the streets on July 21.

Swapsity, an online swapping community, is bringing back the hugely popular Book Movie Music Eco-Swap to the Live Green Toronto Festival this summer! Trade those pre-loved books, DVDs, CDs, Blu-ray and vinyl, one-for-one, for new favourites. We’ll be setting up our six-tent Swap Zone in Yonge-Dundas square on July 21, giving Torontonians a chance to take a much-needed break from spending and delve into the world of swapping.

LOCATION: Yonge-Dundas Square, Swap Zone

Last year, the Live Green Toronto Festival swap was a phenomenal success with our six Swap Zone tents almost always full of eager swappers and more than 3,300 items recycled—that’s $18,000 in savings! Read all about it at http://www.swapsity.ca/posts/view/125

This year, once again running on 100% volunteer power, we’re hoping to set a new record with a goal of swapping 5,000 items in nine hours. Help us make it happen! Don’t forget to spread the word by using the hashtag #SwapZoneTO on Twitter.
