Toronto Pride 2015 has been dubbed "Come Out and Play," and will liven up the the Village through June 29th. After last year's wildly successful World Pride Festivities, the organizers at Pride Toronto wanted to keep the momentum rolling. With Canada's largest ever drag show, sunny pool parties, lush beer gardens, and massive dance raves, they seem to have risen to the occasion.

What's even sweeter is that all Pride Toronto events are free! The rest of the city has a ton of cool events going on too, from pricey ticketed clubs to chilled-out gatherings. I've rounded up my top party picks, followed by a list of parties group by day of the week.

Here's where to party for Pride this year in Toronto.
