The area immediately surrounding Sunnybrook’s Holland Orthopaedic & Arthritic Centre (Holland Centre) at 43 Wellesley Street East will be the site of the Pride Toronto festival during the weekend of June 26 - June 28.

Wellesley Street will be completely closed starting at 6 p.m. on Friday, June 26. It will be closed the whole weekend until 6 a.m. on Monday, June 29.

Large crowds are expected. Pedestrian and car traffic will be very crowded with many road closures in the neighbourhood.

The municipal parking lot across from Wellesley Subway Station will be closed as of 12:01 am on Thursday, June 25. It will not be accessible for parking until 6 a.m. on Monday, June 29. The underground parking lot just south of Wellesley St. E., accessible via Church Street, will only be available for parking until 6 p.m. on Friday, June 26. All cars must exit the parking lot by 6 p.m.

Visitors to the Holland Centre on Friday, Saturday or Sunday should consider using public transit.

All visitors will need to sign in at the Security Desk before they are able to access the building.

During this event, Hospital staff will be particularly careful in monitoring access to the building, and will do everything possible to minimize any inconvenience to our patients.

Thank you.
