Toronto’s all-night art festival will return this fall after a three-year absence due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the event is expanding to include installation across the city.
The city confirmed in a news release on Thursday that Nuit Blanche will be held from sunset on October 1 to sunrise on Oct. 2.
“We are ecstatic to bring to life the first-ever city-wide Nuit Blanche this fall which will be an epic return to a full public art takeover of Toronto,” Nuit Blanche Artistic Director Dr. Julie Nagam said in the release. “We will be showcasing a record number of artists who will be rupturing our city with incredible installations that are thought provoking, specular and filled with wonder.
Many of those events have, however, returned to the streets this summer, including the Caribbean Carnival Grand Parade set for the Exhibition Grounds this weekend.
