The Toronto International Film Festival returns last month for its 49th edition –11 days of Canadian and international cinema; special events and talks with some of the biggest names in film; and TIFF's Industry Conference: a place to connect with film professionals and explore the art and business of cinema.

Hordes of adoring film fans lined up on King Street West in downtown Toronto, rechristened Festival Street for the duration of the 2024 TIFF, which was held from Sept. 5 to 15. They were cheering on their favourite stars, including Hollywood royalty like Angelina Jolie, Denzel Washington, young Australian sensation Jacob Elordi, activist and icon Malala Yousafzai, Korean superstar Hyun-Bin and iconic singer Bruce Springsteen, who all sparkled on their red carpets and indulged their fans with selfies and autographs.
