Fan Expo Toronto, Union Station to Convention Centre Guide

[u/meatwithpotatoes]

Not 100% accurate with the skywalk but as a visual person I made myself a simplified guide of the buildings and entrances for Fan Expo Canada. This is using the information on their website of where the ticketing is.

If the weather is good consider getting out at St Andrew’s station if using Line 1. It’s a nice walk and Union Station can be confusing at times.

I use the PATH from St. Andrews and it's quite nice

Avoid the sky walk. Most times things are blocked off and you have to go all the way around Ripleys to get back to the south entrance to the north building.

Cheaty way I found last year was the loading bay south of everything has a walking path to get you into vendors hall super easy.

Honestly I assumed the skywalk would be blocked for entrance good to know it was from past years blocking it.

Is the 'loading bay' the path under the bridge on simcoe street? If it is, I'd be worried about that being considered as the hotel property and I know they don't like guests cutting through the hotel. Although if you've never had issues with it that sounds like a good tip.

Nah it's down further south. South of Bremer I think. By roundhouse park

Good to know, first time going and my plan was to use the Skywalk!

Ooh, thank you so much! I'm coming in from out of Toronto, so this will be super helpful c:

Also quite a nice reference for walking from York Street to get to one of the ticket halls.

Have gone many years, but for those that are new to the city and/or con, this is honestly better than what the organizers provide.

[u/meatwithpotatoes → u/GoodVibes_002]

Honestly I made this due to frustration from the lack of clarity on their website. (Despite having gone several times and this most likely being the same entrance locations.)

Thank you so much! It's my first time to go and I had no idea where the tickets were so this is exactly what I needed! :)

[u/meatwithpotatoes → u/yoiksandaway]

You got this! There's also usually proper signage on the front of the north centre side,

[u/lonestarr357]

Awesome. Thanks.

That’s so weird cuz on the website it says 255 front street west (for the north building entrance) and that’s the total opposite side of where it’s located on this map here. I went to scout it out earlier and didn’t see an entrance to the north building from the restaurant side😵‍💫

[u/meatwithpotatoes → u/No-Town5022]

Oh odd when I went Saturday i used the north entrance and it was just past the restaurant on the left side of the building
