2019 is about to end. The stroke of midnight is getting closer. And this year will be a white New Year’s Eve: the weather forecasts, in fact, was predicting snow with temperatures which do not exceed zero. But how to spend the last day of the year and how to start 2020 on the right foot? Let’s discover the many choices that the city of Toronto offers us.
Zoo and museums
For a different New Year’s Eve, how about a night at the museum? The Aga Khan Museum opens its doors on the longest night of the year. With a night visit to the galleries, live music and dancing. But also a buffet dinner and a late-night snack bar will be available to visitors. The Royal Ontario Museum will also keep its doors open tonight. Not only will you have the opportunity to visit the new exhibitions, but also to live the exciting experience of dancing and run wild among dinosaurs.
And what do you think about a day at the zoo? There are Holiday Animal Enrichment Days also scheduled for December 31st and January 1st. The initiative, which began on 26 December, and which will end on 5 January, was designed to bring people closer to the animal world. Another idea for animal lovers is to spend the first day of the new year at the Ripley’s Aquarium. You will be able to celebrate, dance and toast surrounded by marine nature.
The thousand faces of New Year’s Eve in Toronto
For those who love sports, what’s better than starting the year running? In the Liberty Village district at the stroke of midnight a 5 km race starts. Afterwards, a party to rest and have fun. But you find something to suit every taste. You can also wait for the new year in the guise of Sherlock Holmes. On Gerrard Street West there is a mystery dinner. After tasting excellent food and toasting with friends, have fun solving some hilarious mysteries. Or the New Year’s Eve spent outside.
The appointment is Nathan Phillips Square to celebrate the arrival of the new year all night. And have you ever thought about a New Year’s Eve at high altitude? On the top floor of the CN Tower there’s the Party With a View. Music and dance and good food for a party with a breathtaking view. But in Toronto it is also possible to watch the new year from a different perspective with the Gala dinner Cruise, a cruise that departs from the port of the city. Wouldn’t it be magical to toast, together with your loved one, while a unique spectacle prostrates before your eyes?
So, among zoos, museums, games, concerts, not to mention the endless private parties, in Toronto on New Year’s Eve there is no excuse for not leaving the house. We have given you some ideas, the choice is yours. Anyway, Happy New Year!
