The historic neighbourhood transforms into a winter wonderland for all to enjoy. Here are a few things you can look forward to when visiting The Christmas Market at the Distillery District.

Ride the Ferris Wheel
Take a spin and see the sights of the city on the festive Ferris Wheel in the middle of the market. Tickets are available for $5 per person. It’s the perfect moment for a holiday selfie!
Visit Santa’s House
You’re never too old for a little bit of holiday magic! Stop by Santa’s house to meet the man himself. There is a photographer on site at select times in case you want to snap a picture to preserve the magical memory.
Sip on Spirits
Spirits of York is a new and trendy micro-distillery that is a must stop destination. Sample sips of Toronto’s finest vodka, whisky, and gin, all made in-house at the Trinity street location!
Eat
From cozy comfort food to fine French fusion, there is a restaurant for every taste in the Distillery District. If you don’t feel like sitting down for a meal, grab a treat from one of the local vendors. We recommend trying the ‘Tornado Potato’ or a classic Canadian Poutine.
