The Toronto Freedom Festival (TFF) is the city's largest one-day, outdoor, spring festival attracting well over 30,000 people to Queen's Park North in the heart of downtown Toronto. The event is always a peaceful celebration without an arrest or serious incident in its three year history.
TFF was developed to offer thoughtful, passionate groups a forum to expose their ideas to thousands of progressive thinking individuals. By coming together in large numbers, positive attention has been drawn to individuals and groups seeking to preserve their constitutional rights and freedoms.
