Thank you, Toronto

Sixteen years in CityPlace and currently on her condo board. Spent two decades on Bay Street at National Bank Financial, Scotiabank, and Dundee Wealth before starting Birdy's Daughter, a Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee company that has done experiences for Nike, Intuit, and Pinterest.

One Love is what she's building now. She thinks people do better when they're seen, heard, and brought together, and the market is her version of that idea.

15+ years of brand and visual work for L Tower, Waterworks Food Hall, Starbucks Asia Pacific, Rogers, Tennis Canada, and Sporting Life. Recognized by Communication Arts, Applied Arts, and Design Edge Canada.

Spent a decade at L.A. Inc. shaping the visual identity of CityPlace itself, including Panorama, Parade, Spectra, Quartz, and The LakeFront. So a lot of how this neighbourhood looks is partly his fault.

Rashid Mohiddin, co-lead. Went to the 2010 tournament in Cape Town with UNA-Canada's Sport-in-a-Box program. He's seen what a tournament summer feels like up close, and that's the lens we program through.

Rudy Ray Kwaku, co-lead. Ghanaian-Canadian trumpeter and the person behind Rudy Ray & Co. and The Rudy Ray Show. A decade of music work centred on African and diasporic artists.

The official BIA for CityPlace and Fort York, representing the restaurants, shops, and independent businesses that share this stretch of the city. The people who actually keep the neighbourhood running.

Their team brought the on-the-ground knowledge of the corridor, the local vendors, and the neighbourhood that makes the season possible. The market is on their patch, with their support.
