Section A: ACE2023 Events

ACE members who are not attending ACE2023 are also welcome to attend.

October 1: Toronto Blue Jays (sponsored by ACE Ontario)

Free tickets for ACE members & ACE2023 delegates! $20 for guests.

The new “Outfield District” is A-MAZ-ING and makes for a fun event even for non-baseball fans! It has created a much better social experience at the stadium. In the past, you had an assigned seat and didn’t really have a chance to talk to anyone except the people you were sitting next to. Now, you can spend the whole game in the “outfield district” if you like, where there is lots of space to grab a drink or bite to eat, mingle and explore.

Getting to the game

  • Game time is 3:07 PM but get there early to experience batting practice from Rogers Landing
  • The Rogers Centre, home of the Blue Jays, is a short walk from Union Station.
  • You can find your own way or there will be groups leaving from the GO train station near the hotel. The train ride is just over an hour. See Section 2 on the ACE2023 Accommodation & Travel page for the station location.
  • Details about meet up times will be provided after registration.

How to get your ticket

  • We need to limit our group size to 20, so please sign up early to reserve your spot.
  • You don’t have to attend ACE2023 to go to the game but ACE members & ACE2023 delegates will have priority access to tickets.
  • Last day to register is September 17 or when we sell out, whichever comes first.
