Saturday, August 8th – 1p.m to 4p.m.
The Rees WaveDeck is now open! To mark this important revitalization milestone, Waterfront Toronto invites you to a community celebration on Saturday, August 8 from 1p.m. to 4p.m.
Join Waterfront Toronto and Toronto City Councillor Adam Vaughan on the Rees WaveDeck for an afternoon of festivities including:
• Sailboat and pontoon boat tours (first come first serve)
• Kayaking and other boating demonstrations
• Music and family friendly entertainment
• Waterfront Toronto walking tours and information
Following in the footsteps of the Spadina and Simcoe WaveDecks, the Rees WaveDeck is the third in a series of four urban docks designed to create more public space along one of the most heavily used parts of the Toronto shoreline. Built in less than 10 months, this 480 square-metre wavedeck is uniquely Canadian and a fantastic new addition to Toronto’s waterfront.
Getting There
Festivities will take place in and around the Rees WaveDeck and slip located on Queens Quay Boulevard West just west of Rees Street (at the water’s edge next to the Harbourfront Centre Sailing and Powerboating).
If you are traveling to the event by TTC, exit the 510 or 509 waterfront streetcars at the intersection of Queens Quay Boulevard and Rees Street. If you are travelling to the event by car, paid parking is available at Harbourfront Centre’s York Quay South lot at the south side of Queens Quay just west of York Street.
