Victoria Day Fireworks Display THE place to watch the fireworks, on a wide expanse of beach! Monday, May 21, 2007 after 9:30 p.m. but come MUCH earlier!! Why come early? To stroll, shop and enjoy the eats and drinks of The Beach. Fireworks are at Ashbridge's Bay; take the TTC and avoid the traffic Take the Queen streetcar east to Coxwell or Woodbine or the subway to the same and then any bus going south. Definitely forget the car; the TTC IS the better way.  Beach blankets and beach chairs are a great idea!
