How to tailor your plan

• Music preference: filter for rock/indie/EDM/classical or specific artists you want to see.
• Budget: set a price range to avoid overbooking expensive shows.
• Neighborhood vibe: consider downtown core for density, or neighborhoods like Queen West, Liberty Village, or the Distillery District for a walkable weekend experience.
• Weather: with May conditions, outdoor markets or patios can be great; have indoor backups if rain’s in the forecast.
