While we've been treated to some beautiful fall weather recently, some people just can't wait for winter.

This includes organizers of the Toronto Ski & Snowboard Show, who will bring a taste of winter to the city this weekend.

For those gearing up for the season, planning a winter getaway, or embracing the colder months, the show, produced by the Canadian Ski Council, offers something for all powder lovers.

The show is being held in downtown Toronto today through Sunday at the Better Living Centre, a larger, more accessible venue then past years.

The show’s new location represents the industry’s commitment to fostering a diverse, inclusive and thriving community, organizers said in a release.

This year's show will feature information about ski and snowboard destinations, kids activities, an equipment swap and a "mountain movie night" that programs "the greatest ski films of the year."

“The Toronto Ski and Snowboard show is, simply put, the official start of winter,” said Paul Pinchbeck, president and CEO of the Canadian Ski Council.

“This is the one-stop shop for everything related to skiing and snowboarding, from getting the newest gear to booking the best deals on travel, this is where skiers and snowboarders come to be together and enjoy all things related to their passions.”

According to the ski council, women, new Canadians and urban dwellers represent the greatest growth in uptake of winter sports.
