Mark your calendar for the big Toronto weekend celebration, Doors Open Toronto, to take place on May 26 and 27.

Explore, discover and celebrate the City of Toronto via Doors Open Toronto!

Doors Open Toronto is a popular annual city-wide weekend celebration that features FREE access to properties that are either not usually open to the public, or would normally charge an entrance fee.

For this 13th annual event, the following highlights include:

  • “Rare access to historic schools, a bank vault and a CSI laboratory will showcase the varied and vibrant architecture, as well as the people and communities associated with them, that have evolved in the city over the last two centuries.
  • In commemoration of the War of 1812 bicentennial, this year’s Doors Open Toronto theme is 200 Years of Building the Urban City.
  • More than 135 architecturally, historically, culturally and socially significant buildings will highlight their city builders; the fascinating personalities who shaped Toronto’s architecture and history.“

The 2012 building roster will be announced at the end of April.

So stay tuned!
