September 23, 2026 | 6 Free Events in Toronto Today

Lost my post and had to rewrite it, only on a Wednesday. The newsletter drops later today, last call to get on the list! Here are today's picks:

A Chorus of Connection ft. Choir! Choir! Choir!
Appel Salon, Toronto Reference Library | 7p-8p

Choir! Choir! Choir! founders Daveed Goldman and Nobu Adilman have built something unusual: a model where a room full of strangers learns a song together and, by the end of it, sounds like a community. That Choir's Craig Pike and host Elamin Abdelmahmoud are in conversation between songs. If you can come early, there's a warm-up voices workshop from 5:30 to 6:30, and a Music Café conversation station running before and after where prompt cards get strangers talking about the songs that wrecked them or the albums they still can't explain. Walk-ins at 6:45 otherwise RSVP.

Live Music: Mo Guzman
Market Street | 5p-7p

A raspy voice and a set list that moves through rock, R&B, soul, country and pop. Mo has opened for The Tenors and The Trews, so he knows how to hold a crowd. Earlier in the day:
Eddy Ruyter | 11:30a-1:30p | Keyboardist & Guitarist

Survivor Premiere Watch Party
The Pilot | 7p-11p

If you're a Survivor person, here's free premiere watch party with your community.

Seniors Telling Our Toronto Tales
Todmorden Mills | 12p-3p

Ten seniors, ten Toronto stories. The presenters share their experiences of living in this city through spoken word, photographs, and whatever objects or heirlooms carry meaning for them.

Book Launch: Gary Barwin's The Comedian's Book of the Dead
Another Story Bookshop | 7p-8:30p

Gary Barwin has sensibility that tends toward the playful and the strange. Come hear about his new book and look forward to special guests.
