The Tall Ships return to the Toronto Waterfront Festival, presented by Redpath. From June 28-29, 2025, a fleet of historic ships will dock along Sugar Beach for two days of nautical fun.

Festival highlights include:

  • Tour the decks of visiting ships Lettie G. Howard, Liberty Clipper, Pride of Baltimore II, presented by Menkes and Fair Jeanne.
  • Sail aboard Empire Sandy, Canada’s largest tall ship, with four sail-aways per day including a coveted sunset sail each evening.
  • Live entertainment on the George Brown Stage, and interactive activities from partners.
  • Enjoy delicious local food vendors in the Billy Bishop Airport Picnic Lounge.
  • On-land activations from the Canadian Armed Forces, Canadian Coast Guard, Live Green Toronto, and Moccasin Identifier.

General admission is free, but tickets are required for ship deck tours and Empire Sandy sail-aways. Don’t miss the boat, tickets are sailing out the door!
