Beavers are taking over Old Town Toronto

The Old Town Toronto BIA is inviting locals and visitors to explore the city through The Great Beaver Quest, a free, family-friendly art crawl and scavenger hunt running June through August 2026!

Presented in partnership with STEPS Public Art, the neighbourhood will transform into a vibrant public art experience featuring 48 four-foot-tall beaver sculptures, each inspired by one of the participating countries in the tournament.

What: The Great Beaver Quest

When: Starting June 1

Where: Find all 48 beavers scattered across Old Town Toronto

Why & How: Download the app, find the beavers and win prizes from participating Old Town Toronto businesses

Designed as both a discovery experience and a celebration of Toronto’s diversity, the Quest encourages participants to explore Old Town’s vibrant mix of historic landmarks, independent retailers, and standout dining spots while tracking down each sculpture.

The initiative is supported by the City of Toronto through the Community Celebration Support Fund and reflects a broader commitment to vibrant, main street cultural programming.
