Summer is a great time to experience Broadway.
Whether you are meeting a friend for lunch, exploring local shops, enjoying a patio or stopping to listen to live music, there is always something new to discover in the district.
Throughout the summer, Broadway is bringing people together through public spaces, community programming, live performances and local storytelling. Here are a few ways to experience the Avenue this season.
Spend Time at the Broadway Community Patio
The Broadway Community Patio is a welcoming public gathering space where people can pause, connect and enjoy the district.
Bring your coffee, lunch or takeout from a nearby Broadway business and settle in for a while. The patio may also host performances, community activities and special programming throughout the season.
The space is available for community use, subject to availability and applicable guidelines.

Catch a Performance on Broadway
Live performance has long been part of Broadway’s identity.
Throughout the summer, you may encounter musicians, singers and other performers sharing their talents at approved spaces throughout the district.
Performances may be scheduled at the Community Patio and other designated Broadway locations.

Follow Our Summer Social Media Campaigns
Our summer marketing student, Clarenz Portades, is taking audiences along for a fresh look at Broadway through two new social media campaigns.
Hot Takes on Broadway
Hot Takes invites people to share their opinions on the little things that make Broadway memorable.
From favourite ways to spend an afternoon to lighthearted debates about food, shopping, events and local experiences, the campaign celebrates the many different ways people connect with the district.
The opinions shared belong to individual participants and are meant to encourage friendly conversation – not to rank or negatively compare Broadway businesses.
Follow @BroadwayYXE on Facebook and Instagram to see the latest videos.
Support Local While You Explore
Broadway is home to independent shops, restaurants, cafés, professional services, entertainment venues and community organizations.
When you visit this summer, consider arriving a little early, staying a little longer and exploring somewhere new.
