The TIFF Bell Lightbox, Toronto's film playground, blends sleek architecture with year-round screenings, vibrant events, and an impressive film archive.
"One of the most iconic locations in the district, the TIFF Bell Lightbox is much more than just a theatre. The Lightbox offers a multiplicity of events and exhibits for the wandering designer. The building itself is quite attractive, simplicity infuses their modern design which works well with their interchanging exhibits. What is possibly most unknown, yet most fascinating, about the Lightbox is their illustrious film archives. These archives are very telling of the transformation the film industry has undergone over the decades. If archives are not your fancy, there is always an exhibit on or a fascinating film you can catch! Vive le cinema!" - Jam3
"TIFF Bell Lightbox is not only the headquarters of the annual Toronto International Film Festival, but it’s also the city’s premier movie theater and entertainment complex, open to the public. Built in 2010, the modern facilities include five state-of-the-art cinemas, a restaurant, classrooms, a film reference library, gallery space, and a members’ lounge. Outside of the 10-day festival in September, TIFF Bell Lightbox screens new releases and runs thematic film programming year-round, focusing on anything from classic blockbusters to foreign indie films." - Stefanie Waldek
