Tuk Band
The heartbeat of Bajan street culture — snare, bass and pennywhistle in full force.
LUX Carnival presents
July 24 – 25, 2026
Eglinton & Barbados Blvd, Toronto
Experience Crop Over in Toronto — two days of soca, tuk band, road tennis and the full Bajan experience in the heart of Scarborough.
The Story
A piece of Bim
on a Toronto boulevard.
Bim on the Boulevard brings the rhythm, food and warmth of Barbados to the corner of Eglinton and Barbados Blvd — a street that already carries the name of the island in its DNA.
Built by LUX Carnival for the Bajan diaspora and every Torontonian who has ever felt the pull of the Caribbean, this is more than a festival. It is a homecoming, on the boulevard.
