Festival On Bloor

Kind of a random street festival. No theme that I could discern, apart from the forceful campaigning from all political parties — but that’s probably just because it’s an election year.
Really eclectic group of street performers — really forward belly dancers, some wailing experimental art group, native men with reeds performing new age tunes, and a folk cover group.
VeganBFFs and I’s favourites:
–a wonderful young man selling rings made from recycled vintage cutlery.
–Panorea spa was offering free 30-​minute eye treatments. SO DIVINE.
–malaysian murtabak which I buy at every street festival ever because it is beyond delicious.
–cheap tanks and skirts. I haggled a tank and skirt down to $ 20 total!
Don’t think I’ll make it a point to return. Unless I stumble upon it on a lazy Sunday like happened this year.

This is the 15^th anniversary for Festival on Bloor.
Bloor Street West was closed from traffic from Spadina and Bathurst on Sunday once a year from 12 PM — 6 PM. How often can you just stroll around in the middle of the street without worrying being ran over by cars?
A lot of street food and snacks: BBQ chicken, Corn, Potatoes on the Stick, Fresh Lemonade…
A lot of street performances: Comedians, Musicians, Magicians just to name a few…
A lot of booths selling jewellery, clothings, handicraft and even getting Rieki massages, oh and Mediation!
Just love Toronto Summer having this neighbourhood street fairs!
