Winter evenings are a great time for looking up into the night sky as it gets dark early and the cool air helps improve visibility of objects in the sky. But what are we looking at? Do any astronomical events occur during the winter months? Join us in the Planetarium as we explore what’s up in the night sky at this time of year from our perspective in Hamilton. We’ll learn about objects we can see with the naked eye – the moon, some constellations, and a six-planet alignment!  Then we’ll look deeper into space and learn about objects that are above us but can only be seen using a telescope – like a nebula where stars are forming and other galaxies millions of light years away!
All ticket sales are final.  Please use our Directions page for information on parking and getting to the planetarium.
A note that this show is not specifically designed for kids - if you are interested in a show designed for a younger audience, please consider our Introductory Astronomy for Kids options (typically on the first Wednesday or the third Saturday of each month).

Dr. Draw and The Strange Parade – Holiday Show 2025
Dr. Draw and The Strange Parade return for their annual holiday show with special guest Scott Jackson and a few other surprise guests.
This year’s set will feature old school Dr. Draw classics, new unreleased tracks, and a brand new holiday program created just for this night. The show is perfect for all ages.
About Dr. Draw:Dr. Draw is an electric violinist who transforms every stage into an unforgettable experience. Starting as a teenage street performer in Toronto, he became the first Canadian violinist to bring the instrument into nightclubs and electronic culture. His explosive fusion of classical, rock, electronic, and world sounds has since taken him from local clubs to international festivals and major cultural events, including the World Expo in Shanghai, the Colombo Biennale, the Galle Literary Festival, and the opening of New York’s Westfield World Trade Center 9/11 Memorial. He has performed for brands like Louis Vuitton and Mercedes, appeared at Toronto International Film Festival events, and shared stages with artists such as John Legend, Mariah Carey, Drake, and Cyndi Lauper. With eight albums and collaborative projects like Tokka and Nemesis, Dr. Draw continues to push the boundaries of the electric violin, captivating audiences worldwide with his high-energy, genre-defying performances.
About Scott Jackson:Scott Jackson is the Canadian Beatbox Champion who brings beatboxing and audience participation into a dynamic collaboration with Dr. Draw, reminiscent of the musical spontaneity of Yo Yo Ma and Bobby McFerrin.

He recorded his first album of bluegrass instrumentals at 16, which led to ten years of living and performing in the US. His time there included many memorable nights at the Grand Ole Opry with artists such as Waylon Jennings, Marty Stuart, Earl Scruggs, Bill Monroe, Charlie Louvin and Vince Gill.
Since returning to Canada, JP has released over a dozen award-winning albums. His impressive body of work has earned him a loyal fan base and multiple award nominations and wins. Tuesday December 30.

Discover the Culinary Delights of Toronto with Our Secret Food Tour
3 - 3½ hours | 6 stops | 12 people max | English | Local food and culture | Award-winning 
------------------  
On our Secret Food Tour: Toronto, you'll explore two of the city's most iconic and authentic neighborhoods—St. Lawrence and the Distillery District. Start your journey in the historic St. Lawrence Market, a food lover's haven established in 1803, where you'll taste some of Toronto's finest culinary delights while soaking in the rich local food culture.
Next, you'll wander through the charming Distillery District, a pedestrian-only area with cobblestone streets and stunning Victorian-era architecture. Once the largest distillery in the world, this district is now a vibrant hub for arts, culture, and entertainment.
By the end of the tour, you'll have had the chance to explore local galleries, boutiques, and artisan shops, as well as sample some of Toronto's finest local delicacies. Get ready to uncover the hidden treasures that make Toronto a paradise for foodies and culture enthusiasts alike.
Ready to join us? Book now and let the feast begin!
 Our journey starts at the St. Lawrence Market, Toronto’s historic marketplace dating back over 200 years.
 First up, we’ll visit a local fish market where you’ll sample wild-caught sockeye salmon cured in Canadian maple syrup.
 Then we'll visit a pub known for making one of the best versions of the "peameal bacon sandwich", also known as Canadian bacon.
 Next, you'll indulge in a popular no-bake dessert whose origin is shrouded in mystery.
 After leaving the market, you'll unearth an Indian-inspired dish that has taken Toronto by surprise and is now a staple of the city's street food scene.
 And for a great end, you'll devour the mouth-watering goodness of a classic Canadian pastry, the famous Butter Tart.
 As with all our tours, there's our delicious Secret Dish.
*Please note: the itinerary and menu are subject to change, based on the locations' availability, weather, and other circumstances.

 Meeting Spot
St. Lawrence Centre for the Arts. Across from Berczy Park, 27 Front St. E., Toronto. ON M5E 1B4. Your guide will be waiting with an orange umbrella so they are easy to spot.
Why the St. Lawrence Market?
As Toronto's oldest market, the St. Lawrence Market's property has had a market as early as 1803. The building itself has many of its original structures still in place from 1845. We chose this spot as our main focal point on our tour because it still remains a place for history, culture and is a part of Toronto's identity.
The area that was built around this market is reflective of how old and new can coexist in cuisine, architecture and history. This is the best place to discover some of Toronto's finest cuisine at the same time as learn more about the city's fascinating history!

Toronto Oddities & Curiosities Expo 2026

Welcome to Toronto, a city where skyscrapers touch the sky and breathtaking lake views await! Indulge in the diverse food scene where poutine and sushi become the perfect pair. Take your bravery to new heights at the iconic CN Tower and soak up the vibrant entertainment in downtown.

Bienvenue à Toronto, où la devise non officielle de la ville est "Désolé, pas désolé", alors que les habitants jonglent avec la lutte quotidienne de se précipiter au travail tout en renversant leur café double-double de chez Tim Hortons sur eux-mêmes. Découvrez le phénomène magique de la capacité des Torontoniens à se plaindre à la fois de la chaleur écrasante et du froid glacial dans la même semaine, mettant en valeur leur remarquable talent pour les doléances liées aux conditions météorologiques. Et ne manquez pas le spectacle exaltant de regarder les habitants se livrer à une bataille féroce pour les sièges du tramway, où les coups de coude et les regards assassins font simplement partie du trajet quotidien.
