Happy St. Jean Baptiste Day!

On June 24th, Québec residents will celebrate St. Jean Baptiste Day!  The day will be filled with parades, BBQs, patriotic speeches, and flag waving.

Children enjoy the party as much as anyone else

The day is a massive holiday in the province and it all began with the first French settlers and a bonfire along the banks of the St. Lawrence River.

Why not enjoy a poutine for the occasion? 

Happy La Fête nationale du Québec to our neighbours to the East! 

Spectacle Loves Village Day!

Yesterday was Village Day in Toronto and the area surrounding the Yonge St. Spectacle was busy with music, families, snow cones, and people looking for great glasses!  Village Day is a yearly event held in the Yonge-Lawrence Village to celebrate the shops, food, and entertainment in the area.

Spectacle also contributed to the festivities by taking 50% off our sale items that are usually a 40% discount!  We always have amazing eyewear at the Yonge St. shop so come by and take a look.
