I'm planning on going.

I'm gonna stick to the downtown core area and just walk around most of the night. Try to bring a radio because the CN Tower lights will be synched to a DJ mix.

I'm going (leaving for TO in about an hour). We're going to see Toy Story 1 and 2 in 3-D (while drinking in the theatre), and then hitting the town. Also gonna stick to the downtown core, as I can't afford TTC.

I really wanna see the Massey Hall installation. Some guy apparently lined the entire inside of the place with piano wire, and is doing something funky with the acoustics. Can't wait!

A couple years ago, someone acted out the Last Supper, and you actually got to sit down and eat with her. There have been giant balloon mazes in the Eaton Centre, they've transformed subway stations into haunted places... it's just crazy. You've gotta check it out.

PS. It's free!
