Gumball 3000, the annual 3,000-mile international celebrity motor rally kicks-off its 22nd annual event in Toronto on Friday, May 27th and Saturday, May 28th. Driven by participants representing over 50 nationalities, over 100 vehicles will embark upon a once in a lifetime experience driving from Toronto to Havana in 7 days - from May 27th to June 2nd, 2022.

As part of the Toronto portion of the motor rally, Bay Street (from Scollard Street to Bloor Street West) will be transformed into the iconic ‘Gumball Grid’, a static car show featuring some of the world’s most impressive and iconic cars. The Bloor-Yorkville BIA (BY BIA) invites guests to come view these incredible supercars Friday May 27th from 11 am to Midnight, as superstars come together to participate and raise money for the Gumball 3000 Foundation, supporting a variety of youth-based projects in low-income communities.

On Friday 27 May there will be a FREE concert on Yonge Dundas Square! Headliner: renowned Canadian EDM DJ Deadmau5!

The Gumball cars will be displayed along Bay Street all day on Friday 27th May before parading into Yonge-Dundas Square on Saturday 28 for the famous Gumball Flag Drop.
