2010 Wish List - Toronto Events


    2009 has been a very good year for the Toronto Grand Prix Tourist Blog and I am looking forward to some returning and some new events for 2010. High on my list is to see the return of the Aids Committee of Toronto's (ACT) annual Fashion Cares event - which was sadly postponed in 2009. The fashion and glamour fundraiser is always spectactular (click on my photos on the right for coverage of the event. My videos on YouTube for Fashion Cares and the 2008 spooktacular have been viewed over 25,000 times - and includes this popular summary of the night while a Google search has my blog just below the official website) and I encourage people to support ACT and this event.



    For more heavy hitters I hope to see the 2010 Honda Indy Toronto which plans a number of improvements over last year - including the addition of the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series and tons more entertainment and hopefully more girls, girls, girls. As well the Luminato and Nuit Blanche Festivals will soon take over all of Toronto as they become more and more popular. And who could forget the Buskerfest as it fills the St. Lawrence Market area. I can also never get enough of the blood soaked, brain eating Zombies as their number continues to grow. I hope to cover more of the Toronto International Film Festival events and look forward to their continued success. Toronto has taken these amazing visual performances to heart and their success has made it difficult to see many of the events due to the size of the crowds, so look for my photographic coverage when you can't make it, or just want to remember the fun - just click my photo links to the right for pictures of previous celebrations.

    Some of the smaller promotional activities also provide great opportunities for images - such as the mob of Blu-Ray Santas in Yonge-Dundas Square, so hopefully companies will step up their creative efforts this year.

    It is always nice to be invited to unique and once in a lifetime events, such as my recent tour in the Olympic Flame Relay convoy and I am glad I was asked to find out about the movie Fandom which will use an exciting method of interactive filmaking right here in Toronto. So please keep thinking of me if you have something that you may want additional coverage on, just email me at jmhcet@gmail.com.

    I will start a list of the events (not in any order) that I want to photograph and write about and will add to it when I find more. Let me know if you can suggest any additional ones that I have left out.

    1. Fashion Cares.
    2. Honda Indy Toronto. July 16 to 18, 2010.
    3. Luminato. June 11 to 20, 2010.
    4. Nuit Blanche. Saturday October 2, 2010.
    5. Buskerfest. Sometime in August 2010?
    6. Zombie Walk. Sometime in October 2010?
    7. Toronto International Film Festival. Sometime in September 2010?
    8. The Pride Week and parades. June 25 to July 4, 2010.
    9. The movie: Fandom. 2010.
    10. Joe Fresh has also identified the Toronto Roller Derby League as something that would be good to see.
    11. Cirque Du Soleil: Alegria. June 30 to July 4, 2010.
    12. Seeing Larysa Harapyn on television again and taking more pictures of the media host - a website with her name is currently under construction.
    13. Caribana (a new one for me, thanks Not a Shopaholic). Monday July 14th to Sunday August 2nd, 2010. I heard the King and Queen show is a must see.

    Join me in supporting local events and activities that make it such a positive experience to visit and live in the City of Toronto.
