​ANNUAL KENSINGTON MARKET WINTER SOLSTICE​ 

Each December, on the year's longest night, the Kensington Market Winter Solstice invites thousands to journey together through lantern-lit streets in a spectacular celebration of light emerging from darkness. Rooted in community, artistry, and shared ritual, it has become one of Toronto's most cherished cultural traditions.
