Wow! Gem of a place. What a location.

Wow! Gem of a place. What a location.
Went there with a meetup group on a Saturday eve. They have winter lights event going on currently.
Walked approx 4 km, totally worth the time. Best views of the city from this place.
I'm pretty sure that this place will be packed throughout the summer but it was so beautiful on a windy evening.

Be careful with the FAKE ice rink! It's not real ice! People were renting the skates to find out it's not a real rink. Some friends rented skates and the manager refused to return their money, they asked for the refund as soon as they saw it wasn't a real rink, they didn't skate for a minute.

The Aurora winter festival did have a beautiful light display but be prepared for line ups, and if you want to see Santa you need a reservation, a little disappointing after a steep entrance fee and everything inside costs extra.. fun for kids with skating and 3 rides but wouldn't do it a 2nd time. The bonfire could have been cool if it could accommodate more than 10 people around it

***Note this is separate review from Budwiser Stage and the big globe thing that shows films.

Not for kids. No activities just food trucks, yachts and empty parks. Oh and a giant chess board they spent 10 million on. This place is a disappointment. The team behind the "renos" who promised an improved facilty with family activities needs to be fired and even charged for theft of taxpayer money.

Just boring. I'm sure had we not left we would have enjoyed the lights but it wasn't worth our time to stay. Sunday evening and the aurora festival doesnt ioen until 6pm. Ontario place snack bar doesnt open til 3pm, they had 4 people behind the bar doing nothing. The so called grill doesnt open until 5pm so you can get a burger and the best part - the reason they dont open it til 5 is because... ready for it.... '... we dont have enough staff..." we damm near choked when we heard that. One girl sipping on something while talking to customers, another leaning on the counter on her cell phone, another girl went for a stroll and the 4th just making herself look busy doing nothing. Stale popcorn, flat pop and a grungy environment. It's also very sad to see the place has not been kept up. Feels and looks like it's going to fall apart any day. Anyways we left and went to the Christmas Market on Mill street.

We visited Ontario place during the CNE last summer and had such a great time touring the grounds. The old rides are really cool to look at and tour around - the grounds are beautiful and you get the most amazing views of the water front area in Toronto. Would definitely recommend for a quick hike in the summer time! Looking forward to returning next summers

Such a beautiful place to walk even with the buildings being shut down and in disrepair. $10 flat rate parking allows us to make a day of it with easy paved walkways and plenty of grassy areas overlooking the lake for a picnic. A little TLC for the complex would be welcome, but honestly, it's nice to have a place like this without commercial businesses making noise and garbage.

Fun

A nice pleasant place for the citizens of the city of Toronto to go for a walk! Especially when the sun is setting, there is a place where they are full of light, it's super beautiful to visit!

Great way to spend your day on the waterfront or roam around the grounds where the old Waterpark resided. Glad to see that the Cinesphere is open again and that parks and recreation is keeping up the good work to ensure the path systems and seating are being maintained as well as the beautiful flowers planted throughout.

We ve been to a few events here (Wiggles concert, Cirque du Soleil show) and though the area and grounds are lovely, it is hard to access via TTC. In the winter, cutting through the BMO field parking lot can feel like quite a trek.

Awesome concert. Hoping the 2 governments here will pull their heads out of the sand and finally turn this place back into the entertainment place that it was before. Too nice a property to let languish in the waste land of bureaucracy

i always love going there. Drank hot chocolate at this location on the weekend and it tasted delicious. the place is always packed but the machine orders make the ordering faster. the order took less time to be processed so was happy about it. i wish they had more seating area.

Went to Ontario Place to see the Toronto Undergraduate Jazz Festival and enjoyed it tremendously. A lot of it has been gutted and converted to outdoor concert spaces, but the shoreline path is still one of the best places to take your family on a walk or leisurely bike ride in Toronto.

The parking fee is still a bit inflated at $10 flat rate all day. I went on Sep 5 and Lakeshore Blvd East had all 3-4 lanes blocked off for bicyclists.

I could also see and hear the Raptors' game 4 in the distance on three very large screens with all 150+ cars honking their support. They won and the place went wild!

Ontario Place brought back a lot of memories. It still remains one of the best outdoor areas to walk around and get some fresh air in the great city of Toronto.
