JKT Ultimate Holiday Gift Guide

December is a month of Christmas and we love it! Spending some quality time with our beloved friends and family is far more important than gifts, but let's be honest, who doesn't like surprises? And rather than receiving a gift, nothing compares to seeing the joy in the eyes of the giftee. So get inspired by our Toronto's favourites & find gifts which are great all year round!

Toronto Christmas Market at the Distillery Historic District

Ranked as one of the best Christmas markets in the world, this annual Market captures all of the tradition, heritage and charisma of a European Christmas Market, while presenting unique and local handcrafted produce.

Join us at the Toronto Christmas Market for family entertainment, great shopping - everything from decorations to treats and great restaurants of The Distillery Historic District - and, of course, Santa! See the full photo essay here.

JKT Spotlight: Kristi Herold

Toronto is a big city where it can be a challenge to make new friends, particularly coming in as an outsider with a busy work schedule. It can be downright overwhelming. Over 20 years ago, Kristi saw an important opportunity to make this big city a little smaller and a whole lot friendlier. Thinking back to the fun she had, and the meaningful connections she made when playing sports in university, Kristi married this sentiment to her life as a newcomer to Toronto, and Toronto Sport and Social Club was born.
