Like so many of the world’s great cities, the story of Toronto is intrinsically linked with rivers and lakes. In fact, two theories about the origin of its name are tied to water. “Toronto” could refer to the Seneca word for “on the other side,” as in where the Humber River narrows, or the Mohawk for “where there are trees standing in the water.” Evidently, water has given life to the city, providing everything from trade advantages to many fish species like the delicious Ontario pickerel you’re likely to find on your plate at the Toronto stop of the Homegrown Tour.
Metro prides itself on supporting Ontario’s fishery industry and protecting the environment. This is why we have adopted a sustainable seafood policy that offers ecologically and socially responsible seafood. You can learn more about our policy here .
The main stage will feature Texas King, providing a stellar soundtrack of Canadian classics for the evening. The cherry on top? A VIP Juno-nominated artist will join them on-stage for a truly unforgettable experience.
It goes without saying that the Six is a hotbed of Canadian music talent. To help narrow down the choice of performers at the Homegrown Tour, Metro enlisted the help of Coalition’s Incubator Project to select local artists to open the show.
The headliners for the Toronto Homegrown Tour were none other than folk sensation Common Deer, who delighted attendees with a set list showcasing a sampling of their smash hits as well as some of the greatest Canadian hits ever. By the time surprise guests JUNO Breakthrough Group of the Year Cold Creek County, took the stage, the party was already one for the books.

From shimmering turquoise to sky blue, there’s nothing like a water-inspired palette to evoke the beauty of Ontario’s great lakes. Add pops of pristine white for a crisp, clean take.
Skip the obvious anchor and sailboat motifs and opt for knotted rope accents, lanterns, and bottles that could carry messages out to sea. Subtle, chic and timeless!
Adirondack chairs are a must—as are patterned fabrics to add texture and comfy blankets to cozy up to should the night get chilly. This is Canada, after all!
