Toronto is about to get a little brighter this winter with the return of spectacular illuminated installations by Lumière: The Art of Light. Toronto’s Trillium Park will host a free outdoor exhibit, showcasing a number of unique light structures.
Running from Feb. 16 to March 27, 2026, Lumière: The Art of Light will take over the Ontario Place Park, lighting up the night sky from 6 to 11 p.m.
This year, the event celebrates the theme “Rhythms of Light: Motions, Sound, and Time,” displaying cold and imaginative works by talented Ontario-based artists. From intricate installations to immersive displays, the exhibition offers a chance to see how light can transform space, inspire creativity and create magical moments.
As for participating artists, keep an eye out for these:
For those hoping to warm up between exhibits, bonfires at Trillium Park will be lit on opening night, Friday and Saturday evenings, and nightly during March Break – weather permitting. It’s a great way to cozy up, sip something warm and soak in the glowing lights.
Lumière: The Art of Light is free to attend, and a perfect option, especially for Family Day.
Mark your calendars and bundle up, Toronto. Prepare to be enchanted by a celebration of light, art, and imagination unlike anything else in the city this season.
