As a global cultural hub, Toronto constantly offers something new and exciting, especially for art lovers. The city boasts a thriving arts scene with world-class museums and galleries. Among its many events, none excites art enthusiasts more than Art Toronto, a must-visit showcase for creative talent from across Canada and beyond.
Art Toronto is Canada’s oldest and largest international art fair, celebrating its 25th iteration this year. The iconic event will feature a vast array of acclaimed local and international creators. Bringing together top galleries and talented artists, it offers visitors the chance to explore works across various mediums and discover emerging stars in the art world.
For many in Ontario and beyond, Art Toronto is the most anticipated artistic event of the year. This multi-day event draws thousands of curators, galleries, artists, and collectors from around the world, eager to experience its dynamic atmosphere and inspiring displays.
The 25th edition promises to be another phenomenal showcase. Art Toronto will take place from October 24th to 27th at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre in downtown Toronto. Over 100 galleries will participate, including prominent names from Canadian cities like Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, St. John’s, and Quebec City. The fair’s global reach is equally impressive, with exhibitors from Bogota, Seoul, Paris, London, Buenos Aires, Amsterdam, and Reykjavik, offering a truly international perspective.
Art Toronto also features several engaging events. Those seeking an educational experience can attend the Platform Talks, where renowned artists and industry experts discuss compelling topics. Last year’s program included conversations on Indigenous art and the creative communities outside urban centers, providing insightful perspectives on contemporary art.
The fair kicks off with an exciting Opening Night soirée, where attendees can enjoy drinks and light bites. “Collectors First Look” ticket holders will have exclusive early access to the art on display.
