Everyone gets a card tied to a local Toronto spot.
You spend the night trading with people for one you want more. That's your reason to walk up to anyone in the room.
Near the end, names are drawn and about 1 in 3 people win the real gift card.

Saturday, April 25 · 7–10 PM
Liberty Village · 75 East Liberty St

🏙️🍔 LIBERTY VILLAGE, STACKT MARKET & THE WELL WALK 🍔🏙️
🏙️🍔 LIBERTY VILLAGE, STACKT MARKET & THE WELL WALK 🍔🏙️
Old Industry, New Energy & A Food Hall Finish
Some parts of Toronto have completely reinvented themselves — and walking through them feels like watching the city evolve in real time.
This is a brand new walk — the first time we’re doing it — and it’s all about exploring three very different (and very cool) pockets of the west end.
We’ll start in Liberty Village, once an industrial zone filled with factories and rail lines, now transformed into a buzzing neighbourhood of condos, creative spaces, and local energy. You can still feel the history in the brick buildings — it’s just been given a whole new life.
From there, we’ll head to Stackt Market, a unique outdoor market built from shipping containers, full of pop-up shops, art, and ever-changing vendors.
We’ll finish at The Well, one of Toronto’s newest and most talked-about developments, where we’ll settle into the food hall for a relaxed lunch together.
This is not a formal tour.
It’s a social walk — a mix of city exploration, light storytelling, and discovering places together.

🚶♂️ What We’ll Do
We’ll meet at Wendy’s at King & Dufferin and begin our walk into Liberty Village, wandering through its streets and getting a feel for the neighbourhood.
From there, we’ll make our way over to Stackt Market to explore, browse, and take it all in.
Afterward, we’ll continue toward The Well, where we’ll wrap up the walk and grab lunch in the food hall. There are lots of options, so everyone can find something they like.
You’re welcome to stay and eat or head out whenever you like.
***
🌦️ Weather & Expectations
This walk will happen in typical spring weather — sun, wind, or light rain.
As long as it’s not extreme conditions, we’ll be going ahead.
Dress in layers and come prepared — this is April in Toronto.
Comfortable shoes are recommended.
Also — since this is our first time doing this route, we’ll be exploring it together a bit. That’s part of the fun.
And as always — this is NOT a guided or historical tour. It’s about being social and enjoying the experience.
