🎅✨ The Holiday Lights of Rosedale ✨🎄
McDonald's, 11 St Clair Ave E, Toronto, ON, CA🎅✨ The Holiday Lights of Rosedale ✨🎄
💫 Toronto’s Most Magical Christmas Walk Returns! 💫
Get ready for an evening of twinkling lights, festive charm, and pure holiday magic! 🌟
Join us for a light-filled winter walk through Rosedale, one of Toronto’s most Christmassy neighbourhoods — where heritage homes transform into dazzling displays of lights, wreaths, and wonder. From the legendary Kringlewood Drive (where every house has a giant Santa!) to nearby streets trying to claim the Christmas crown, this walk will have you feeling like you’ve stepped into a Hallmark movie. 🎬🎁
We did this walk last year and it was one of our most beloved events of the season — full of laughter, photos, and the spirit of community. You won’t want to miss this year’s encore!
After our stroll, we’ll head to Swiss Chalet for their famous Festive Special — a cozy Canadian holiday tradition featuring quarter chicken, stuffing, cranberry sauce, a warm dinner roll, and a LINDOR truffle (maybe?) for dessert. 🍗✨ (Dinner is optional — you can join just for the walk if you like!)
🎥 Watch a sneak peek of the magic here:
