User Manual
What Is It?
A ten day public Festival exploring our future life, work and play.
When Is It?
Friday September 23 to Sunday October 2
Where Is It?
In more than twenty venues across Toronto, from the University of Toronto to the Drake Hotel, from the Design Exchange to the Gladstone Hotel, from the National Film Board to the West Queen West and Regent Park.
What's The Difference?
Oddly enough, this is the world's first public Festival of the Future. We want to inform the locals, excite the tourists, and display tomorrow's culture and technologies. We're a blend of Culture, Commerce and Community.
What's The Audience?
The smart, the curious, the well-educated. Ages depend on the program. Younger people will go for the Queen West action; academics, poetry buffs and McLuhanatics will flock to the U of T; each of our ten theme Future Days will appeal to specific interest groups, Green Day, China Day, Design Day, School Day and so forth; and our free public exhibits at City Hall, Dundas Square and the Design Exchange will attract thousands. How many? We don't know, but we're projecting a paid attendance of 20,000 plus.
What's The cost?
Surprisingly low. An M-Pass, which gives you first crack at everything costs $60, $30 for students, single ticket admissions are $10.
