Overhead view of HTO Park and one of the sites for this weekend's Luminato Cirque de Soleil.
Yep, we're about 400 metres away from HTO Park yet right now they're doing a nice little soundcheck of the speaker system for this weekend's Luminato Cirque de Soleil show. With our balcony door open, the music is drowning out the traffic, the Gardiner, the wind.
Got some cool guitar licks happening.
On another note, there is going to be a flood of people coming down to Queens Quay. Adam Vaughan sent out a notice with his latest newsletter. The gist: the south lanes will be closed and probably partly open to pedestrian traffic!
Past experience has shown that this will be an extremely popular destination for weekend visitors. No outdoor performances are scheduled to go past 11 pm and concert sound levels will be kept within city-approved site limits. To enhance the weekend experience there will be some road closures in effect to accommodate planned activities and pedestrian traffic:
Queens Quay W (eastbound lanes): from Lower Spadina Ave to Lower Simcoe St:
Saturday June 13, 6am to Monday, June 15, 3am
Luminato organizers will manage these road closures to ensure as little disruption as
possible. Access to 401 Queen’s Quay West will be managed by a Paid Duty Police
Officer.
