A Gay-Old-Time in Halloween Town

The place to party on All Hallows Eve is Toronto’s gay village.  The only traffic on Church St. that is allowed during this night’s festivities are ghosts, goblins, and drag queens.  It is just one giant party and it is no wonder that it attracts so much attention.

There were line ups to all the major bars:

• Woody’s
• Byzantium
• Crews and Tangos
• Slacks 
• Zippers

However, I got an invite to a weekly Monday night event called FML at Fuzion by my horned friend Andrew.  Among other amazing event planners, Andrew collaborates on this weekly FML industry night, but this occasion took the cake.

Fuzion is a high end resto-lounge style venue with elegant settings within a beautiful Victorian building.  This building is sectioned off into different rooms making it perfect for a private party.  It also has one of the most beautiful summer patios on the strip with trees strewn throughout the space.  However, tonight is unlike any other as Fuzion becomes a busy night club.  As I head towards the dance floor I run into my good friends, Hugh and Esme.  They both are lookin’ hot.  Hey, did you know they are sisters?

FML is an event located on the upper floor of Fuzion every Monday night where a live DJ packs the house with some of the best beats.  I arrive with my ‘wife’, but there is so many people we lose each other.  No need to worry, just look for the woman squeezed into a Shrek costume that was meant for a child.

The night was a great success.  I had a blast and got to party with some cool freaks.  Halloween may be over on Church St. but there is still an array of costumes and characters found in this area on any given day.

And then there was my sad attempt at a last minute costume.  Can you guess what I am? ….. A fairy… get it?

Church St. on Halloween.  Another reason why I love this amazing city.
