Gala Show G20 Update What to expect during the G20 (June 25, 26 and 27, 2010) As you know, and are reminded daily, the G20 Summit is a major Toronto Event. So much so that Security Zones cover most of downtown and traffic and getting around in Toronto will be really difficult. The good news is that the Gala Show, at 1523 Bloor Street West, is well out of the restricted and security areas. Even so there will be traffic and transportation problems and we have some recommendations for all of our Gala Show guests.
