If you haven’t gotten a chance to partake in any Toronto Pride Month events, clear your calendar and make room for the festivities. Vv Magazine’s Ama Scriver rounds up the top events to take part in before the month comes to an end. 

With only a couple of weeks left of Toronto’s first Pride Month, it’s time to get your scheduler out.

YOU WON’T BELIEVE IT’S NOT, NOT VEGAN 😍😂 Both Vegans and non-vegans rejoice, because the well known Vegan Montreal restaurant, @lovrestaurant has finally expanded to Toronto! Our editor recently joined @ashkanhobian and @abhishekdekate for a lunch preview and it was outstanding. PSA: The coconut curry was mouth watering! 🤤 Have you tried it yet? 😍 #TorontoVIBE 122 6

Last week we had a chance to visit this year’s @CanadianTire Christmas house. Which is a STUNNING home in the @BloorYorkville home DECKED OUT in CT holiday decor. Not only did it inspire us for our upcoming Holiday Decor Guide, to help you find all you need to get you in the spirit. We felt we needed to SHARE the experience with you too. If this doesn’t get you in the spirit, then we don’t know what will. 😂 Make sure to drop by your local Canadian Tire and check out all of their various decor themes showing here! #CTChristmas #notsponsored 78 9
