Drive-In Film Festivals

The RBC Lakeside Drive-In is Hosting this Year's TIFF Festivities

The RBC Lakeside Drive-In at Ontario Place allows Torontonians to experience the live performances and film premieres they've likely come to miss over the past few months, all in a safe, socially distanced environment.

This year's much-anticipated Toronto International Film Festival will be featured at the drive-in, with the first performance and film premier spotlighting First Up with RBCxMusic artist Cat Clyde, whose performance was followed up by 'Falling,' the directorial debut of famed actor Viggo Mortensen. In support of the city's frontline workers, RBC also launched its ‘Best Seats in the House’ program, giving them to chance to win front-row seats and gift bags.

Tickets to more live performances and film premieres at the RBC Lakeside Drive-In at Ontario Place are available through Ticketmaster.
