8 things to do in Toronto this week
Things to do this week in Toronto mark comebacks of the city's biggest monthly and weekly parties. FNL at the ROM returns with their annual Afro Fete event, which is always a great time. First Thursdays is back at the AGO, and there's a night market on King Street where you can shop and dance at the same time.
Here are my picks for the top things to do this week in Toronto.
