Every movie enthusiast’s dream is to be the first to witness cinema greats at a film festival. Well, if you live in Canada, the Toronto International Film Festival is one of the biggest Canadian festivals that one can attend. Ranking close to the big boys such as Cannes and Sundance, the Toronto Film Festival is a major hub for film-enjoyers and filmmakers alike. Critical successes such as American Beauty (1999), The Big Chill (1983), and I Am Love (2009) all debuted at the Toronto Film Festival. The Toronto International Film Festival returns September 5 – 15, 2024 for its 49th edition — 11 days of Canadian and international cinema; special events and talks with some of the biggest names in film; and TIFF’s Industry Conference: a place to connect with film professionals and explore the art and business of cinema.
The 49th edition of the Toronto International Film Festival is presented by Rogers.
