Passport Information

AMSN would like to remind all U.S. citizens that they are required to have a valid U.S. Department of State-issued passport to enter Canada. The U.S. State Department is currently recommending that new applications for a passport are submitted 12-16 weeks prior to travel and that renewals are submitted 6-8 weeks prior to travel. 

Visa Information

To ensure that foreign nationals residing in the United States do not encounter difficulties re-entering the United States from Canada after attending the meeting in September, we recommend that you consult the U.S. State Department website or an immigration attorney to verify the current U.S. re-entry requirements for your specific visa (i.e., H-1, J, F, etc.). Depending on your country of origin, some individuals may also need to obtain a visa to enter Canada. Individuals should consult their home country's foreign office for specific information regarding requirements for entry into Canada.

Explore Toronto

For the trailblazers who leave no destination unexplored; meeting in Toronto puts you at the economic, innovative and cultural heart of Canada. An exciting city that’s ever-evolving, our multicultural roots are expressed through thriving local artists and innovators. Venture through vibrant neighbourhoods, each one representing different facets of Indigenous, European, African, Caribbean and other cultural influences that add to Toronto’s eclectic identity.

Toronto welcomes you with two international airports that serve over 180 global destinations in 55 countries. With over 1,200 flights a day, it’s also less than 90 minutes away for over 100 million Americans.

DISCOVER CULTURAL GEMS

Did you know that Toronto is the most-visited destination in Canada? For one, it’s the country’s multicultural epicentre – with a population of over 51% born outside of Canada – which naturally lends to a refreshing selection of museums, galleries and landmarks that honour our city’s rich heritage. Not to mention year-round festivals that celebrate diversity in food, music, art and film; some of the most well-known being the Toronto International Film Festival and Toronto Caribbean Carnival, to name a few.

GET YOUR SPORTS FIX

Four seasons equal four times the variety of sports. Toronto is one of the only cities with teams in almost every North American major professional league. Luckily, our wide-ranging weather gifts sport fans with year-round entertainment. Whether it’s a summertime Blue Jays game or a snowy NHL season, you’ll feel at home within our massive arenas and lively sport bars, while surrounded by equally-passionate locals.

CATCH AN AWARD-WINNING SHOW

If you’re an avid theatre or concert-goer, head to the Entertainment District for high-production and globally-acclaimed shows. Toronto’s theatre, improv and music scenes are the heart and soul of our city, blessing the public with musical classics, star-studded entertainment and inspiring local treasures like Come From Away and Second City, among others.

INDULGE YOUR INNER-FOODIE

Toronto’s multicultural roots are deliciously reflected within 10,000 restaurants across 140 neighbourhoods. Whether it’s the authentic Asian dishes of Chinatown and Koreatown, or a family-owned Mexican eatery in Kensington Market, indulge in one of the best food scenes in North America. Then dance it off with an energetic nightlife that encompasses everything from artsy cocktail bars, to high-end rooftop patios to historical music venues.

EXPLORE THE CANADIAN OUTDOORS

Just south of Toronto is Ontario’s Niagara Region, home to the famous Niagara Falls. Beyond the falls, this region encompasses Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario’s scenic vineyards of over 80 wineries.

About a 2-hour drive north of Toronto is Muskoka. Alive with lush forests, tranquil lakes, and diverse hiking trails, Muskoka is a popular getaway into untouched nature. Activities are plentiful and vary in style: boat cruises, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing, spas, hikes, ATV rentals, zip-lining and aerial parks.
