15 things to do in Toronto this week

Things to do in Toronto this week include outdoor festivals, sporting events, and the start of a very special summertime tradition. 

The Canadian National Exhibition (CNE) returns to mark the finale of summer in Toronto. Here's your chance to indulge in some of the craziest foods and fun attractions that will take over Exhibition Place starting this week. 

It's festival galore in the city, too. You have the opportunity to celebrate the diversity of Toronto with events like Toronto Korea Festival and Afro-Carib Fest 2026 taking over town. 

And for anyone looking to check out a concert or two, music icons like Ed Sheeran, Simple Plan, and BTS are all set to entertain their fans in the city this week. 

There's all this and so many other things to do in Toronto this week. Be sure to read our past round-ups for events that may overlap, and reference our complete events calendar to continue planning ahead.
