10 things to do on the August Civic Holiday 2026 in Toronto

Things to do on the August Civic Holiday this Monday, Aug. 3 include Toronto concerts, outdoor events, and plenty of Caribana celebrations.

Anyone who wants to continue the Toronto Caribbean Carnival festivities into Monday is in luck because parties like LAST LAP Boat Cruise and Carnival Room are taking place throughout the day as an epic finale to the nearly week-long event.

Events like Island Soul at the Harbourfront Centre and a presentation of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night at High Park will keep you entertained outdoors, while Daniel Caesar's concert at Scotiabank Arena offers you a way to have fun and keep cool indoors.

There's all this and so many other things to do during the August Civic holiday 2026 in Toronto. You can always read our weekend round-ups to see if anything fun overlaps and check out the complete event calendar for a full list of activities.
