BTS Boulevard In North York: Where To Find All 20 Signs Before September 23
Toronto’s BTS concert weekend is over, but one of the city’s most visible fan installations is still up.
A temporary “BTS Boulevard” now marks a stretch of Yonge Street in North York with 20 red street signs, and fans have until September 23 (Wednesday) to see them.
The City of Toronto unveiled the honorary route on August 21. It runs along Yonge Street from North York Boulevard to Finch Avenue.
The signs commemorate BTS’s Toronto tour stop; they do not permanently rename the street.
Where BTS Boulevard Runs
BTS Boulevard follows Yonge Street between North York Boulevard and Finch Avenue. Destination Yonge North York’s interactive Korean Vibe Guide identifies all 20 sign locations along the corridor.
- South End: North York Boulevard, near North York Centre Station
- North End: Finch Avenue, near Finch Station
- Number of Signs: 20 temporary red BTS Boulevard signs
- Last Scheduled Day: September 23, 2026 (Wednesday)
The corridor is compact enough to explore on foot, but the full route is longer than a single photo stop. Open the BIA map before leaving home, save the sign locations you care about most, and allow extra time for crossings along Yonge Street.
How to Plan the Walk
For a simple south-to-north route, take Line 1 to North York Centre Station and begin near North York Boulevard. Continue north on Yonge Street toward Finch Station. Reversing the route works just as well if Finch is more convenient.
The signs sit in an active commercial neighbourhood rather than a closed event site. Stay on public sidewalks, avoid blocking storefronts or driveways and check TTC service notices on the day of your visit.
Evening light may suit the red sign design, but daylight will make it easier to follow the full route.
BTS Weekend is Over, But the Signs Remain
The city proclaimed August 22 and 23 as BTS Weekend to coincide with the group’s Toronto concerts.
Those concerts and the special purple Toronto Sign lighting have already passed. The street-sign installation is separate and is scheduled to remain until September 23.

The Photo Contest Closes September 20
The Yonge North York BIA is also running a fan photo contest through September 20 (Sunday) at 11:59 PM.
Entrants are asked to photograph a BTS Boulevard sign, tag @yongenorthyork, and use #YongeNorthYork, then submit a screenshot through the BIA’s form. The prize is one $150 restaurant gift card.
The posted rules say the contest is open to Canadian residents outside Quebec who are 18 or older. It is a BIA promotion and is not sponsored by BTS.
Read the current rules before entering in case the organizer changes a requirement.
What Happens After September 23
The city says the signs are expected to be donated to NeighbourLink North York for a free fan giveaway after the installation comes down. A giveaway date, entry process, and eligibility details have not been announced.
Fans should follow the city, the BIA, and NeighbourLink rather than relying on resale posts or unofficial claims.
