Fashion Art Toronto is Canada's longest-running fashion week—a non-profit organization dedicated to platforming Canadian fashion designers, artists, and creatives on the local and global scene since 2005.
We Were Never Into Gate-Keeping
From the start, our runway has been open to every story, every vision. For us, everybody always meant every body.
We've staged more than 1,000 runway presentations, hosted thousands of models and artists, and put fashion and art side by side long before “cross-disciplinary” became a trend.
What sets us apart isn't scale—it's values: community-built, radically inclusive, fashion as both art and a career pipeline.
If fashion is not for everybody, it is not fashion.
Positioning Toronto as the Next Global Fashion Capital
Toronto doesn't have one look. Toronto has every look. 200 origins. 180 languages. The fastest-growing city in North America.
This city is a living kaleidoscope—layered cultures and voices, a moving tapestry that reinvents itself daily. That's what a fashion capital should be. Not locked in tradition, not chasing trends. A place that listens to the world and answers in its own voice.
Seven Days, City-Wide
The 2026 Spring Festival takes place over seven consecutive days, May 25–31, with programming distributed across Toronto's cultural landmarks and neighborhoods.
Offsite Programming expands Fashion Week beyond the main runway into unconventional spaces—ROM, Bata Shoe Museum, The Bentway, The Historic Distillery District, turning Toronto itself into a fashion stage.
Main Venue: T3 Bayside
From May 28–31, the festival's main program is presented at T3 Bayside on Toronto's Waterfront—30,000 square feet at 251 Queens Quay East. Each evening from 5pm–11pm showcases:
- 40+ runway shows
- Fashion presentations and art exhibitions
- Brand activations
- Canadian boutique shopping
- Live performances
- Industry panels
