Current Status: Ontario is now in Step 3 of the Roadmap to Reopen
Toronto is currently in Step 3 of the province's three-step Roadmap to Reopen. This means that public health measures are being safely and gradually lifted based on province-wide vaccination rates and key public health indicators.
We've curated links to the most up-to-date information and safety guidelines to help you make more informed decisions and plans. As an added measure, we also recommend that you research the protocols of each place you’re visiting and book reservations or tickets ahead of time online.
Gatherings: Limits for social gatherings and organized public events are up to 25 people from different households indoors and up to 100 people from different households for outdoors.
Travel between regions within Canada: There are currently no restrictions on travel to Ontario from other provinces within Canada. However, visitors are still strongly advised to avoid travel between regions of high case counts and those with low or no cases. Learn more about travelling to Ontario from within Canada or abroad.
