Planning to catch Toronto's New Year's Eve fireworks? The City's lighting up the inner harbor at midnight! For the best view, check out these parks and public spaces recommended by the City. Let the countdown begin!
Ireland Park 5 Eireann Quay
Easily accessible by TTC, this park will not only give you a great view of the fireworks but of the stunning city skyline too.
Little Norway Park 659 Queens Quya W
Located at the southwest corner of Bathurst Street and Queens Quay West, this little park along the harbourfront is one of the top suggested areas to view the fireworks show.
Toronto Music Garden 479 Queens Quay West
This popular park has plenty of outdoor seating space. Relax on one of the many benches, lay a blanket on the stairs, or pull up a folding chair and enjoy the show as it illuminates the sky.
HTO Park 339 Queens Quay West
Toronto’s “urban beach” is a fantastic spot to catch the fireworks. It’s located in Toronto’s Inner Harbour and it features a long sandy beach dotted with umbrellas and plenty of Muskoka chairs to sit down, relax, and enjoy the show.
HTO Park West 375 Queens Quay West
If you can’t find a spot in HTO Park you can walk over to HTO Park West, where you’ll get to enjoy equally stunning views and Muskoka chair seating options.
Harbourfront Centre grounds 245 Queens Quay West
The Harbourfront Centre grounds can accommodate plenty of people, so you’re sure to find a spot to watch the fireworks here. Plus, the surrounding restaurants and cafes are ideal if you want to warm up and have a bite before the show.
Harbour Square Park 25 Queens Quay West
This park is located next to the Toronto Ferry Docks. In the summertime, Harbour Square Park is a nice spot to sit and watch the ferries travel back and forth to the island.
And on New Year’s Eve, you can have a seat and enjoy the high-altitude fireworks display above the water.
Sugar Beach Park 11 Dockside Drive
Sugar Beach Park is another urban beach with outdoor seating, a sandy beach overlooking the water, pink umbrellas, as well as a granite rock outcropping and grass mounds for the public to enjoy.
Water’s Edge Promenade 115 Queens Quay East
This spacious walkway extends along the water’s edge and has plenty of spots to sit down or slow down to soak up the view.
Don’t forget, the TTC will be running free service all night long on New Year’s Eve from 7 PM on December 31st 2023 to 8 AM on January 1st 2024.
