15 things to do in Toronto this week

Things to do in Toronto this week include a string of comedy shows, a basketball game, and an outdoor winter festival that will transport you to the islands. 

Head over to Stackt Market and enjoy a dose of warmth in the dead of winter at Jamaica in January, with food, music, and activities that will give you tropical vibes. 

And speaking of outdoor events, if you want to shop seasonal foods from local vendors and go skating afterwards, now's your chance to check out Evergreen Brick Works' Farmers Market that takes place every Saturday morning. 

But of course, braving January's frigid temperatures is not everyone's cup of tea, so the things to do this week list also includes indoor activities worth checking out. 

Popular comedians Uncle Lazer, Nikki Payne, and Paul Chowdhry are all in town performing at various venues all week long. But, if you're looking for something other than comedy — say, sports? — the Toronto Raptors will host the Los Angeles Clippers in a home game at the Scotiabank Arena. 

There's all this and so many other things to do in Toronto this week. Make sure to check out our previous round-ups for more ideas, and also our complete events calendar to plan out the rest of the month.
