TORONTO — A group of Toronto musicians is hoping to bring the city’s musical community together in one location for a massive group photo in Trinity Bellwoods Park.

“Imagine every Toronto band together at once, having a laugh, and the moment being documented for years to come!” a Facebook post for the event reads.

“The goal of this event is to get as much of Toronto’s music community (artists, producers, engineers, promoters, contributors, etc.) in one spot at one time to get a group photo.”

Organizer Joel French said on Facebook he’s hoping the photo op becomes an annual event, adding “you can’t create tradition without starting somewhere.”

The photo will be taken at 7 p.m. at the north side of the park, and French is urging anyone involved with the Toronto music scene to attend. So far about 900 people have confirmed attendance on Facebook.

“Once the photo is taken we will get every person to tag themselves and their band, studio, company, etc.,” he said.

“[To] show the world just how talented and close-knit the music scene in Toronto really is!”

Global News’ Rosey Edeh will be reporting live from the event at 6 p.m. on News Hour Toronto.
