Last night’s sold-out 2015 edition of the Motionball gala in Toronto was a glamorous charity bash once again taking over all the rooms of the Liberty Grand filled by 2,500 guests. We rated last year’s Motionball as one of Toronto’s Top Annual Events of 2014 and this was another great one jam-packed with entertainment, art, and fun all coming together in support of Special Olympics Canada.
The CAFA awards (Canadian Arts & Fashion Awards) was the place to be last night for everyone in the fashion industry. The Fairmont Royal York housed the gala for the second year in a row and brought out the fashion vip, who were carefully styled and studded to the max.
As you’ve probably heard by now, Jan 28, 2015 is the day to talk about mental health and to end the stigma associated with mental health. I’ve watched the new one-hour documentary about Clara’s Big Ride. It is a moving look at the coast-to-coast bike journey of six-time Canadian Olympian, Clara Hughes, and ten people who have mental illness. I really think everyone should watch it, too. You can watch it now online and on-demand on Crave.TV…
The nationwide Motionball is back in Toronto and it’s always a mega crowd-pleasing charity party. Early bird tickets are already sold out.
It’s a special year for the Toronto Public Library. They will be celebrating the opening of the 100th branch and also hosting the 10th annual Book Lover’s Ball. This charity black-tie gala will feature a new format including live music, dancing and even one-on-one Scrabble games with some of your favourite authors all in a library/party setting.
So if you love books here’s your chance to celebrate as the literary world comes to life.
It’s that time of year where we look back at our favourite events in Toronto that happened this past year (Top events of 2013 here, by the way). There are many factors to consider when it comes to what makes an event “the best” year after year. You work hard for your money so if you choose to spend it to have a good time, then you naturally expect to get what you pay for.
