Nuit Blanche
Nuit Blanche (नुई ब्लांश) – meaning ‘White Night’ or ‘All-Nighter’ in French is an annual all-night arts festival that’s held in several cities around the world, Toronto included. This year, it is estimated that close to a million people attended it, including, ofcourse, yours truly. The official website says “From sunset at 6:55 pm on Saturday, October 3, to sunrise on Sunday, October 4, 2009, Toronto’s playful overnight celebration of contemporary art once again takes over the streets for one night only”
Unfortunately I wasn’t suitably equipped with a camera, but no worries, there are others who do a much better job.

These are just some of the pictures, very random. Venues in downtown were very crowded, with long lineups to get in and often the art on display made you wonder about the definition of art… Nevertheless it was another excuse to get out and see how lively (and lovely) the city was. I love Toronto. ![]()

But how come you were without a camera? I thought by now it would be almost like an extension of your arm
LOL
That’s true..!
“better job”? Come on – I would have loved to see what you would have captured from that vantage point Petecat had.
hehehe, some day some day, I will climb the CN tower and take that picture.
You bring alive the city with your TT posts.:)
Thanku thanku!
I had no idea that Toronto had a nuit blanche.
I never got to go to Paris’… I wish I could one day.
