TORONTO CHRISTMAS MARKET

MG_3498This holiday season in Toronto celebrated the romance and magic of a traditional Christmas at Lowe’s Toronto Christmas Market. This free annual event captured all of the tradition and charm of European Christmas Market, while showcasing hundreds of unique and local handcrafted products. There were different kinds of entertainment such as musicians, carolers and children’s choirs to Santa’s workshop where kids had the chance to meet Santa.
What is Christmas Market?: Christmas market is a street market associated with the celebration of Christmas during the four weeks leading up Christmas. These markets originated in Germany, beginning in the early 1400’s, and now have been being held in many countries all over the world.

 

imagesThey sold many types of Christmas gifts, especially traditional items such as crib figurines, toys, wood carvings, hand-made ornaments, candles and holiday memorabilia. We enjoyed eating French Canadian Poutine, hot dogs, grilled sausages and other tasty snacks as well.

 

 

 

A lot of people visited this event! They were charmed with the Christmas lights, and enjoyed different kinds of entertainment. The foods all were really good. This Christmas market is over, but Christmas is almost here in Toronto! Hope you will have a wonderful Christmas season!

Glenn Gould Studios // Open HouseSituated at 250 Front Street West, Glenn Gould Studio is the “jewel of the Canadian Broadcasting Centre” and continues to be one of Toronto’s favourite venues.

Their name comes from one of the most celebrated classical pianists of the 20th century: Glenn Gould. Their first mission is to honour the legacy he left behind by supporting the arts and to continue to operate as a Centre of Excellence for Canadian and international performances.

Glenn Gould Studios // Open HouseGlenn Gould Studio is also a superb recording facility which offers sound isolation, state-of-the-art recording facilities and acoustics that are ideal for classical and jazz recordings. The place is modern and glamorous with the red carpet and the cordons at the entrance. You will feel like a celebrity!

 In addition, they are the home to many business functions for local and internationally-based companies, offering an environment ideal for meetings, product launches and seminars.

Indeed, the stage welcomed many concerts and CD recordings by very famous singers such as Shania Twain, Blue Rodeo, The Trews, Mariah Carey, Matt Dusk, Gordon Lightfoot, Natalie McMaster and Feist. And for those who have seen Life of Pi, The Right Kind of Wrong, Our Man in Tehran, Being Julia, One Week and Glitter; these film scores were all recorded here.

_MG_3498This place is ideal for all your events thanks to the unique style of the place, offering a glamorous image combine to a design and modern atmosphere, which will charmed your guests for sure!  One thing that impressed us also was all of the in house technical equipment.  Having everything in the studio saves from renting all of the expensive AV equipment and paying for labour to set it up.  With the new look and feel of the location and in-house equipment the space is ideal for many events especially if a performance is involved.
