Our honest take
It is one of Toronto's most important queer cultural and nightlife spaces, with more than one type of event.
A rented party or theatre setup can change the floor, seating and access route. Written event-specific confirmation matters.
Plan the visit
Transit: Use accessible Wellesley or College Station, then travel to Alexander Street. Check the easiest sidewalk and entrance route.
