Buskerfest

Scotia Bank holds some really cool events such as the Buskerfest and nuit blanche both of which I've actually visited this year.

Buskerfest is a fundraising event organized by the Scotia Bank where street performers from all over the globe gather in downtown Toronto in support of Epilepsy Toronto.

Unfortunately, I didn't get to see the following performances as we were late getting there.  Thanks Eddie for sending the photos!

This is what we saw when we arrived:

Singer with beautiful voice and groovy moves:

Talented artist:

"Live" manikin:

Rhu player (Chinese "fiddle/violin"):

How many plates can he balance at once?  hmmmmm

Night market!

Percussionist using just his own voice!

Person walking on stilts:

Up and coming band:

Folk music!

An escape artist:

Flame thrower:

And there are still a lot more we didn't see!  If you ever plan to drop by Buskerfest next year, don't forget to bring loose change and give it to performers that are well deserving as this is the only way they get paid for being a part of this event.

'Till next time!
