Must See Pop Ups Just Steps Away From Workhaus

It’s pop up season! After the successful launch of the Stackt Market, Toronto is opening up more and more pop up spots for the summer. And while we could go on for days with all the pop ups coming and going, we thought we’d put our own little Workhaus spin on it and look at those within walking distance of our two West end locations, Spadina and Castle.

THIS IS EYE CANDY is the newest instagram pop up museum full of whimsical rooms to take photos in. Fulfill your every fantasy with their vault of creative rooms that are sure to peak your interest. Don’t worry about it being too crowded to grab a good shot, your able to book your own personal time for your mini photoshoot, whether it’s solo or with friends.  

Make sure you have your camera’s at the ready, because this pop up will transport you to a private jet room, a field of cherry blossoms and more!

It’s just so Instagrammable.

David Pecaut Square’s Farmers Market runs between the end of May through October on every Thursday. It has become somewhat of a staple for Toronto summers as it features not just locally grown produce from Ontario farmers, but also live music from local artists and food vendors.

Located steps away from our Castle location, there’s no reason not drop by for lunch, or to pop in after work to see what’s going on.

Occurring April through July, Utopia is an exhibit that explores the natural beauty of nature. Nestled in at Kensington Market, Utopia features immensely pose-worthy shots from floral swing sets to a ceiling of umbrella’s blocking out the rain.

Tickets provide you with one solid hour to yourself, allowing you to run free in each room expertly designed to hold your attention.

On June 15th, Toasted Life is bringing a pop up panel discussion and dance party to the city. The panel will include a variety of entrepreneurs tasked to discuss the intricacies of growing and creating their brand.

After 4pm, the panel is cleared away to make room for the dancefloor. Let the party begin! And what a party it will be, as the event is scheduled to have four DJs to celebrate the entrepreneurs of the city.
