Victoria Day events in Toronto include a wide range of events to Instagram yourself, proving to your cottage-rich followers that you, too, are living life to the fullest. Some fireworks tips: watching them sans screen in front of your face is generally more fun. Same goes for comedy, beer and nerd culture gatherings (overlap alert), circus festival BBQ's (!), and live music. Maybe just tell your friends how great Toronto was in person on Tuesday.
