We’re thrilled to welcome back our Summer Student Street Team back for 2024. Our Summer Street Team helps us to connect with our neighbours and to keep our conversation going with the community we call home.
Look for our colourful Toronto Pearson tent at a number of community events, movie nights, farmers’ markets and festivals across the region. Meet the team, learn cool facts about Pearson, test your airport trivia, and win awesome swag! We have lots of fun in store this summer, so be sure to come out and join in!
