Welcome to 'Things to do in Toronto' on this vibrant Friday, May 2, 2025 As you step out into the city, you're greeted by the mild spring weather, a perfect backdrop for a day filled with exciting events and activities.

Today, Toronto is buzzing with a variety of happenings that cater to all interests. If you're a tech enthusiast, you might be interested in the **Workday User Group of Ontario**, an in-person event at RBC WaterPark Place, although it's sold out, it's a great indicator of the city's thriving tech scene[4].

For those with a passion for numismatics, the **Toronto Coin Expo** is underway at the Toronto Reference Library, featuring over 50 dealers with rare and unique currency items. This is a unique opportunity to explore the world of coins and meet fellow collectors[5].

If you're looking for something more spiritual or reflective, the **Come and See Retreat** organized by the Sisters of St. Paul de Chartres is taking place from May 2 to May 4. This retreat offers a chance to delve into vocation and spiritual growth in a serene environment[3].

In terms of local news, Toronto is always evolving. Keep an eye out for new restaurant openings in the trendy Kensington Market area, known for its diverse culinary scene. Public transit updates include the ongoing improvements to the TTC, making it easier to navigate the city.

For must-do activities today, consider taking a **2-Hour Kensington Market Chinatown Walking Tour** to explore the vibrant streets, eclectic shops, and multicultural eateries. If you're up for an aerial view, the **Toronto: City Sightseeing Helicopter Tour** offers a breathtaking perspective of the city's skyline[1].

Here’s a local tip: Did you know that Toronto has more than 1,500 parks and green spaces? One hidden gem is the **High Park**, which is especially beautiful this time of year with the cherry blossoms in bloom. It’s a perfect spot for a family picnic or a leisurely walk.

As we look forward to tomorrow, mark your calendars for the **Fleurs de Villes Spring** event in Bloor-Yorkville, starting on May 6. This unique floral exhibition celebrates the new season with stunning displays and interactive experiences[2].

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
