Wine Rack Rescues Toronto Park Hangs with In-Store Picnic Tables & Samples

— June 29, 2022 — Lifestyle
This Canada Day long weekend, select Wine Racks in Toronto that are close to the city's most popular parks will offer in-store picnic tables and samples of Bask canned beverages or a glass of Bask wine.

Since the City of Toronto has banned the consumption of alcoholic beverages in public parks, Wine Rack is "coming to the rescue by providing Torontonians with a convenient (and legal) space to casually sip wine before heading outside with friends." To further help park goers this long weekend, the Wine Rack is also giving free picnic blankets with the purchase of Bask wine bottles.

Participating Wine Racks include the Trinity Bellwoods Wine Rack, the Christie Pitts Wine Rack, The Beaches Wine Rack, and the High Park. The initiative will take place between Friday, July 1, 2022 - Sunday, July 3, 2022.
