According to a hardhat, everyone is working towards a June/July soft launch.

And it should be noted that only the South section is opening. The northern section with the space for events is expected to open in 2028/29.

^The soft launch includes the lawn on the northeast corner of the island overlooking the Keating Channel.

Oh, cool! That's not what they were saying at the open house a month or two ago

All I know is I keep, occasionally, teasing the workers "let us in, let us in"

It was stated last year the event area was to be a temporary parking lot this year and no idea if that is still the case.

Heads up there will be a talk and several neighbourhood tours for Doors Open Toronto May 23 & 24 at Biidaasige Park. Wasn't going to mention it because the announcement hasn't been made but just saw the site is live so it's public now anyway. The talk and tours are free but each one indicates attendees require a "ticket" but this might just be for having enough staff or other resources on hand. There are a few things I don't yet see on the map so it's probably a work in progress. Usually it all gets announced May 1.
Participating sites, talks, and tours are here: https://www.toronto.ca/explore-enjoy/festivals-events/doors-open-toronto/
Probably a chance the content of the programming isn't going to be all new info for regular readers of this thread lol, but hopefully the weather's good and it draws out the public
