Toronto is getting a music festival at Hanlan’s Point next month

Toronto’s beloved outdoor concert and picnic series is returning to Hanlan’s Point! Electric Island is making a comeback in May for another season of live music under the sun.

Kicking off music festival season here in Toronto is the Electric Island Season Opener, a weekend-long event with back-to-back performers by the waterfront.

This year’s festival is back for its 11th year and bigger than ever with eight days of music throughout the spring and summer.

The opening event will take place on Victoria Day weekend at the popular warm weather destination of Hanlan’s Point.

Hanlan’s Point is located on the Toronto Islands, so you’ll be taking a ferry to get there. It’s also where you’ll find Toronto’s popular clothing-optional beach!

Let’s hope the weather is warm enough for a post-dance party skinny dip.
