TOCA at The Ritz-Carlton – Upscale, interactive, and indulgent. Live cooking stations and artisan cheeses make this a luxurious pick.

Father’s Day Brunch Cruise – Sail across Lake Ontario on the Obsession III or Jubilee Queen with skyline views and a buffet-style brunch. It’s a top pick for both relaxation and wow factor.

Yorkville Exotic Car Show – One of the city’s most popular Father’s Day events. See over 135 rare and luxury vehicles on display along Bloor Street West. Admission is free and the vibes are high.

Kortright Centre for Conservation – Just outside the city core, this serene spot offers forest hikes, birdwatching, and fresh air—perfect for dads who prefer a peaceful escape from the concrete jungle.
