A dazzling light show is about to take over the Toronto skyline tonight, and you won’t want to miss this global spectacle.
To celebrate the upcoming theatrical release of Project Hail Mary, Amazon MGM Studios is bringing “Rocky’s Global Light Show Tour” to the city for one night only. Toronto has been selected as one of only three cities worldwide to host the event, joining the ranks of Taipei and Berlin for this high-tech celebration.
Toronto’s Harbourfront will serve as the backdrop for this striking after-dark display. Watch as the waterfront is transformed into a sci-fi wonderland, featuring an illuminated show that will be visible against the iconic city skyline.
Unlike many of the city’s major activations, this event is completely free to the public and requires no tickets, making it the perfect excuse for a late-night stroll by the lake.
The best vantage points will be found along the downtown waterfront, specifically east of Yonge Street. Spectators can expect to see close-up moments of the show in motion overhead, including the dramatic take-off and landing sequences of the display.
