To mark the National Flight of the Monarch Day, the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority hosts the free TRCA Butterfly Festival at Tommy Thompson Park, which is located where two major migratory flyways meet on the waterfront of Lake Ontario. Celebrate these iconic insects as our butterfly visitors prepare to make their epic journey to Mexico for winter, go on a guided walk, take part in kid-friendly games and activities, and more!
