BURLINGTON, ON
Burlington isn’t exactly jumping this long weekend.
However, the Toronto Caribbean Carnival will be taking place in Toronto, bringing with it an array of vibrant festivities located just steps away from the Exhibition GO Station.
On August 2, GO Transit is increasing train service along Lakeshore West to help you get to and from the Grand Parade.
Lakeshore West:

- NEW train trip departing 5:28 p.m. from Exhibition GO to Union Station.
The colour and the extravagance is stunning. You’ll never regret watching the event.
