I live at Lake shore and Dufferin and I can tell you that the lake shore after 4 is balls on the best of days + all the connecting streets are closed now.
\How is lakeshore around lunchtime?
that's when I'm hoping to get into town and get my tix . . . will it be reasonably easy to get around (i.e no traffic?)

I take the GO into Toronto all the time, but I usually crash at someone's house and don't have to worry about getting back home that night. My friend has a 6-month old baby at home, and would prefer to go home at the end of the night.
Problem is, it looks like the last eastbound train leaves Exhibition at 11:00, which seems terribly inconvenient. It just seems weird that the last eastbound train is 11:00, but there are still two trains (11:49 and 12:49) that head westbound. Am I seeing the eastbound information correctly, is there really only the 11:00?
There may be a pick up/drop off area but you will sit on the lake shore trying to get to them. I live at Lake shore and Dufferin and I can tell you that the lake shore after 4 is balls on the best of days + all the connecting streets are closed now.
The easiest way to get there is by TTC. From any subway stop take the train to Dufferin station and take the 29 bus south. If you want to go to the preparty get off at liberty st ( all stops are announced) and walk east and it will bring you to the brazen head. If you are not going take the bus one stop further to springhurst. Get of a walk 5 min to the venue
If coming from downtown take the King or Queen westbound streetcar and get off at dufferin and walk south to liberty village for the party or 10 min further for the venue.
IF YOU ARE GOING TO DRIVE google directions to 101 liberty st and check the sat view. Large parking lot. It is far enough that you should get a spot but close enough to walk to the party ( 2min) or venue (10 min) It is city run so it is reasonable.There is also a large free parking lot across from the party and you are not planning on staying late you would be able paek there. Liberty village is a bit of a shopping complex so there is free parking.

Thanks so much! I used the schedule finder, which only shows 11:00.
Again, thanks! It certainly makes planning for tomorrow much easier.
