After a day filled with thrills and fun you can end your night with a magnificent fireworks display. The fireworks show at Canada’s Wonderland will use 6000 explosive fireworks of fantastic colours and designs. The show lasts for 15 and the best spot to view the show? In front of Wonder Mountain!
ASHBRIDGES BAY PARK
WHERE: 1561 Lake Shore Boulevard East, Toronto
WHEN: May 21 @ 9:45 p.m.
It’s probably on of the most popular go-to places for fireworks this Victoria Day and rightly so. With over 2000 colourful fireworks to see you can expect a truly dazzling 15 minute show. The park will be extremely busy so we suggest getting there a lot earlier and secure yourself some prime firework viewing real estate.

BOARDWALK PLACE
WHERE: 1675 Lake Shore Boulevard East, Toronto
WHEN: May 21 @ 10 p.m.
If Ashbridges Bay Park is too mainstream for you this might be a better choice. Following Ashbridge’s firework show, Boardwalk Place’s show will be similar but a little bit smaller. Nonetheless, it is still expected to be just as beautiful and brilliant.
