With the smoke and sweltering temps, we have decided to postpone it. We apologize for the inconvenience, and hope you still head to to enjoy their delectable eats.

Thank-you for a wonderful evening

So many special whimsical moments shared on this beauty eve.

We are grateful to all the organizers and artists for their hard work and energy creating these experiences for us to stumble across and magically discover.

While it didn’t work out for us to participate with the Punch Buggy this year, we are such big fans of Nuit Blanche, and we’re truly grateful we get to experience it here in our home city.🖤🖤🖤

Home - Punch Buggy Express 09/20/2023

Update: We 🖤Nuit Blanche, but we’ve made the tough call to pull the pedal bus and join in on foot this year.

It’s been trickier logistically this year due to construction along Meewasin trail, changes to the planned city road closures along Spadina, and tech glitches getting the word out. Punch Buggy is a wee bit sad to miss out on the fun, but hopes to be back next year 🖤

Discover an art-filled night from the unique vantage point of the Punch Buggy pedal bus.

Wear a dash of white and shine your brightest at Nuit Blanche 2023.

Observe art, participate in art, and conveniently keep your crew safely together using active transportation.

Our one-way Glow Tours depart from St. John’s Cathedral and River Landing.

Giggles and Punch Buggy flavoured ice cream were had on last nights’ Fable Fun Cruise.

We suspect the parents don’t mind being at the back of the bus with a little space from their kiddos 😉

In some cases we think parents might even have More fun riding the Punch Buggy than their kids. What was your experience? Who had more fun? Let us know! ⬇️

Big thanks to DaD's Cycle and Sled Shop for fine-tuning up Punch Buggy so it shifts like a dream.

It’s trickier than you’d think to get pedal buses serviced, so we really appreciate them taking the time to work with us and learn what needed attention.
