Easter Weekend Events in Toronto don't revolve around binge-eating Hershey bars. While you can carve out some time to celebrate the holiday with your surplus of chocolate eggs and animals, there's plenty to do that won't leave you in a cocoa coma. Dance parties, concerts and the One of a Kind Show are just a few of the reasons to leave your house this weekend.
