So y’all know we love public art and love the city, right? It should come as no surprise that we’re big fans of Nuit Blanche then! If you’ve been living under a rock for the past few years then we’ll quickly fill you in on what one of Toronto’s biggest fall events is.It started in 2006 as an all-night exploration and celebration of art in the city. It goes from dusk to dawn and brings out literally hundreds of thousands of people. Besides being an all-night art festival, it’s also just a major Toronto party. Many restaurants and bars stay open all night so that Toronto becomes the city that never sleeps, for reals.<\/p>\n
