We light up the Apron Tower to honour national holidays, seasons and major national or city events.
Throughout the year, we also have scheduled lighting to celebrate our sports teams, including Toronto FC, the Maple Leafs, the Raptors, and the Blue Jays.
2023 schedule
Lighting begins at sunset and ends at sunrise the next morning. During spring and fall bird migration periods, lighting will end at 11 pm.
