Yorkville is recognized as one of Canada's most exclusive shopping streets.

In the 1960s, Yorkville flourished as Toronto's bohemian cultural centre. It was the breeding ground for some of Canada's most noted musical talents, including Joni Mitchell, Neil Young and Gordon Lightfoot.

Today, some of the city's most exclusive retail stores line its streets, including Prada, Gucci, MAC Cosmetics, Louis Vuitton, Tiffany & Co., Escada, Ermenegildo Zegna, Cartier SA, Swarovski and other upscale designer boutiques.

Yorkville is also home to some of Toronto's most exciting and dynamic events, including the Toronto International Film Festival.
