Spend a gorgeous summer evening surrounded by lush greenery as the Edwards Summer Music Series wraps up its season with an incredible performance by Joy Lapps. Known internationally as a master of the steelpan, Lapps seamlessly blends Afro-Caribbean and Afro-Brazilian rhythms into a vibrant, high-energy sonic experience that leaves plenty of room for spontaneity and community connection.
What to Expect
Set against the stunning backdrop of the Toronto Botanical Garden in North York, these free Thursday night concerts are a city favourite. Bring your own lawn chair or grab general first-come seating on the lawn. Because of the series' immense popularity, arriving early is strongly recommended.
Make a Night of It
Plan to arrive well before the 7 p.m. showtime to stroll through the botanical gardens, join a pre-concert guided tour, or pick up a delicious bite and a BBQ dinner at the on-site Dandelion Cafe. Generously supported by the Edwards Charitable Foundation and Foresters Financial, it's the ultimate way to wind down a summer week outdoors.
