The holiday season is right around the corner, and CF Toronto Eaton Centre is all set to make it one to remember.
The iconic 114-foot-tall holiday tree is back with a bang, and guess who's lighting it up? None other than Canada's very own Barenaked Ladies.
CF Toronto Eaton Centre’s Annual Tree Lighting Ceremony marks the official launch of the 2023 holiday season in Toronto, and this time, it's bigger and better than ever.

Who's hosting
This year, legendary Canadian band Barenaked Ladies will be your hosts for the evening. They'll fill the atmosphere with their timeless tunes, and the Tree Lighting Ceremony will feature an epic singalong with The Toronto Children's Chorus.
Other festive highlights
CF Toronto Eaton Centre will complement the tallest and most magical indoor tree in North America by making it snow inside even more than last year, transforming the centre into a true wintery wonderland.

Every time it snows inside, CF will donate $500 to Covenant House, Canada’s largest agency serving youth experiencing homelessness, culminating in a total holiday donation of $100,000.
