This is an online event!
Toronto Botanical Garden will host its 8th annual FREE Edwards Summer Music Series ONLINE with eight intimate concerts showcasing contemporary Canadian talent, all filmed within the beauty of the Toronto Botanical Garden. A new virtual performance will be posted every Thursday at 7 p.m. until Labour Day on the Toronto Botanical Garden’s website (torontobotanicalgarden.ca). Mark your calendars or sign up on the website to receive email reminders and exclusive content.
Virtual concert goers are encouraged to “make it a date night” or organize a group watch party by ordering one of the Concert Grazing Boxes created by Food Dudes. Take the home viewing experience to the next level by adding live houseplants or burning floral incense available through the Toronto Botanical Garden’s new online Garden Shop.
