About this tour
Yonge Street's connection to music, theatre and pop culture is second to none, and it has been described as a music and theatre mecca equal to or better than Times Square or Hollywood Boulevard. From jazz and Motown to hip hop, and from rock 'n' roll and metal to alternative, the street has heard it all, and your private music guide knows the stories behind every chapter.
The walk follows Yonge Street through its music and film history, with a stop at a legendary record shop, where a souvenir is yours to take home. You visit the Elgin and Winter Garden Theatre, then finish at Yonge-Dundas Square and the Sam the Record Man signs.
Whether you are a music fan, a local history buff or simply someone who likes hearing great stories, this is an introduction to the city's musical past that you won't want to miss.
