Biidaasige Park & New Don River Opening Weekend
You are invited to Biidaasige Park, located on Toronto’s new island, Ookwemin Minising, where the Don River meets the lake.
Biidaasige Park is the first public space to open on Toronto’s new island, Ookwemin Minising. Come get your first look at this immersive, imaginative space – including a transformed Don River – before it fully opens next summer.

Great news - Biidaasige Park is dog-friendly with two dedicated off-leash areas with some fun activities they can participate in too – we've got something for everyone this weekend! The new river is open for paddling all weekend. Don’t have a boat? Check back over the summer and join one of several organized paddling tours.
