I took my girl for the last day of The Ex yesterday and had a GREEEAAATTT time.  Every year it is similar and we enjoyed the shopping, bike/skater shows, acrobatics, food, games, but what stood out the most this year was...

Aquarêves: A pyromusical acrobatic street performance

Direct from France, La Compagnie Malabar makes its spectacular Ontario debut with Aquarêves, a stunning show which has mesmerized crowds throughout the world. Underscored by spectacular music, this must see extravaganza will feature exotically costumed aerial acrobatic cirque performers, stunt dancers and stilt walkers whose daring feats will be choreographed to sensational pyrotechnics and laser effects, illuminated by dramatic lighting.

The approximately 20-25 minute spectacle will be staged on a magnificent lunar boat that will lead CNE visitors on a magical journey into the realm of both the whimsical and the sublime. A fantastic finale of froth and frolic will engage spectators of all ages!

We ended up drowned in the middle of a foam party and it was a perfect way to end the CNE this year!

Hey how did the team do?  My niece (the team my bro coaches) just won the York Region Cup u-8.  They are still undefeated for this season.  They haven't lost a single game - woo hoo!!!!


About the price.  It's not crazy expensive but it can get that way if you take kids.  The all day ride pass is $35.00 on top of the $14.00 entrance fee and then parking...it ends up not being almost as much as Wonderland and Wonderland is a million times better.

hell yeah and the rides are safer

how did lil duro do?

Too expensive?!? It's like $14 to get in....way better than going to Wonderland for whatever it is now...

I like the atmosphere 'cause it reminds me of 'Ferias' back home.

The Alex Naar performances with Latin Energy were really good!

It MAY have to do with people's allergies - some people have SERIOUS allergic reactions - and some may have allergies to certain foods and they may not even be aware of it.

I know at least TWO people who have to carry epi pens with them due to allergies.
