When it comes to beautiful weather and access to the main attractions, May through September is regarded to be the best time to visit Ontario. It will steal your heart with long sunny days, balmy temps, and a lot of things to do. May and June can be rainy, but also full of music events like Dream or NXNE Festival. July and August are usually scorching and busy with higher rates. However, cooling down at the Toronto Festival of Beer is always a great idea. The leaves start changing color in September, and this is also a lovely time to explore Ontario. October unfolds the peak of the foliage glory and captures the heart and mind with amazing events like Nuit Blanche in Toronto and Toronto After Dark Film Festival. November marks the start of a cold and snowy winter that continues into April. But if you dress for the weather, you can have a wonderful time skating along Rideau Canal in Ottawa.
