Beaver Quest Part 1

 June 2026 - Toronto ON

The Old Town Toronto BIA is inviting locals and visitors to explore the city through The Great Beaver Quest, a free, family-friendly art crawl and scavenger hunt running June through August 2026!

Presented in partnership with STEPS Public Art, the neighbourhood will transform into a vibrant public art experience featuring 51 four-foot-tall beaver sculptures, each inspired by one of the participating countries in the tournament.

48 represent the individual nations competing on the global soccer stage (hand-painted with flag colors and cultural motifs by local artists), one represents the "Welcome World," and two are special bonus beavers.
