Toronto’s all night art festival is back starting tonight at 7pm and continuing throughout the night until 7am. The two big areas seem to be the area around Humber Polytechnic Lakeshore campus and along Queens Quay, the rest is spread out at various locations. City Hall seems devoid of any installations which is disappointing because they had some of the biggest and best art installations.
Friends also celebrated the 33rd birthday of the man in the foreground
The theme is bridging the distance and the City says "the highly anticipated all-night celebration of contemporary art, returns tomorrow. This year's event promises to be an extraordinary showcase featuring more than 90 art installations across the city. This free event invites art enthusiasts and the curious alike to explore innovative works created by local, national and international artists. Additional information about the event including a complete list of installations and locations is available on the City’s Nuit Blanche website: https://www.toronto.ca/explore-enjoy/festivals-events/nuitblanche/ Date: Saturday, October 5 to Sunday, October 6"

I will be bringing my artistic lite-bike in again for Nuit Blanche but will start my journey around 1am to see what it is like when the crowds die down. Late at night, or early in the morning did make for smaller crowds but even on a bike I could not see all the projects I wanted to visit. The concentration of art installations at two locations - Humber Polytechnic Lakeshore Campus and along the Waterfront strip, left the other installations scattered remotely around the city and even on an ebike I could not travel fast enough. By 4am the downtown core looked deserted.
