We hosted our fifth annual Light Up Your Life event on Thursday, September 19 at the Palais Royale venue situated by downtown Toronto’s beautiful waterfront – and we are delighted that it was our most successful and well attended event yet!
This year’s most-anticipated architectural lighting event included both exterior and interior lighting from over 25 selected vendors. Hundreds of industry experts including architects, designers, engineers, and media attended the evening to preview the latest and most innovative products and concepts from our partners.
A big thanks to all of our interior and exterior exhibitors for putting on an incredibly illuminating show, which this year included: Amerlux, Arcluce, Artemide, Axis Lighting, Cree Lighting, Delta Light, Elite Lighting, ERCO, Inter-Lux, JLC Tech, Lightheaded Lighting, Liteline, Lumca Lighting, Lumenwerx, On Light, Selux, Structura, TLS International, Twist Production, Visa Lighting, Viscor, Visionaire Lighting, VISO, wakaNINE,
Guests were also invited to participate in a grand prize giveaway — a trip to New York City to attend LEDucation. Participants took part in a friendly game that required them to engage with several manufacturer representatives to learn more about their products on display. Congratulations to the winner, Tijana Brkic from NAK Design Group!
Finally, special thanks to DJ Funky Rob and the GoodKids for supplying the evening’s entertainment.
We’re already looking forward to next year’s event!
