JUNE 13-14
From June 13–14, Luminato Festival transforms Harbourfront Centre into a playground of free and ticketed music, circus, dance, and public art experiences for all ages.
Global sounds will fill the air with two outdoor music stages showcasing artists from across cultures and musical traditions, including Orkestar Kriminal (Montreal), GANNA (Ukraine/Berlin), WESLI (Haiti/Canada), Marta Elena (Cuba/Canada), Rashmeet Kaur (India), Aysanabee (Oji-Cree), and more. Workshops and performances invite audiences to move, sing, and celebrate alongside the musicians.
Look up! Aerial performers take flight with Quebec’s trailblazing Le Camion d’Intervention Artistique - CIART and New Zealand’s The Air Between Us, while Brazil’s Mal Perdedor (Bad Loser) delivers a hilariously inventive clown show blending archery, opera, and circus arts.
Additional highlights include Heartbreak Hotel (June 11–14), a cheeky, synth-driven theatre piece exploring the physiology of a broken heart, Lovin’ You: The Minnie Riperton Story (June 13), a celebration of the iconic singer led by Juno Award-winning Divine Brown with DJ Starting from Scratch, Glenn Lewis and more, as well as immersive public experiences such as Colourful Parachutes, and the Indigenous-led event The Power of the Land (June 6). Come explore the sights, sounds, and surprises of Toronto’s vibrant cultural landscape at Luminato at Harbourfront.

Getting to Harbourfront Centre
Your guide to arriving and exploring with ease.
Harbourfront Centre is located along Toronto’s scenic waterfront, just south of downtown. Whether you’re arriving by TTC, car, bike, or on foot, getting here is simple and convenient. Once you arrive, on-site signage and staff will help guide you and ensure you find your way around the campus with ease.
By Transit

By Car
There are several paid parking options near Harbourfront Centre, including underground parking on-site and additional nearby surface lots and garages along Queens Quay West, Lower Simcoe Street, and throughout the downtown waterfront area.
Allow extra time on busy weekends and summer evenings, as the area can experience increased traffic and limited parking availability.
